Abstract
A driving assist system assists driving of a vehicle. A deceleration target includes at least one of a preceding vehicle, a mandatory stop line, a mandatory stop sign, a traffic signal, and a stop line before the traffic signal that exist ahead of the vehicle. A risk factor includes at least one of a pedestrian, a bicycle, a motorcycle, an oncoming vehicle, and a parked vehicle that exist ahead of the vehicle. The driving assist system executes: deceleration assist control that automatically decelerates the vehicle before the deceleration target; and risk avoidance control that automatically performs at least one of steering and deceleration of the vehicle so as to avoid the risk factor. When both the deceleration assist control and the risk avoidance control operate concurrently, the driving assist system notifies a driver of the vehicle of not the deceleration target but the risk factor.
