Abstract
A lane departure prevention control apparatus includes a recognizer that recognizes environment ahead of a vehicle and detects left and right lane markers of a lane where the vehicle is traveling based on the environment, a first detector that detects vehicle behavior, a determiner that predicts whether the vehicle will depart from the lane markers based on the lane markers and the vehicle behavior, a setting unit that sets a range for permitting lane departure prevention control from the lane markers, a calculator that transmits a signal corresponding to steering torque for preventing the vehicle departure from the lane markers to a steering controller when the vehicle departs from the lane markers and the vehicle is within the control permission range, and a second detector that detects a shape change in the lane. The unit variably sets the control permission range based on the shape change.
