Abstract
A vehicle driving control apparatus applied to a vehicle includes a surrounding environment information obtaining device, a vehicle situation information obtaining device, an external information receiving device, a velocity value setter, and a driving control unit. The driving control unit adjusts a velocity of the vehicle by considering surrounding vehicles and various information and performs driving control based on the adjusted velocity. If a leading vehicle is recognized, the velocity of the vehicle exceeds a speed limit or a predetermined velocity, a driver set velocity is not lower than a velocity of the leading vehicle, and a following vehicle is not recognized for a predetermined time or longer, the driving control unit sets a temporary velocity as the velocity of the vehicle and performs driving control by using the temporary velocity. The temporary velocity is lower than the velocity of the leading vehicle by a preset value.
