Abstract
A driving assistance system includes a processor and a memory that stores surroundings information indicating the surroundings of a vehicle detected by sensors mounted on the vehicle. The processor is configured to acquire the position of a target in front of the vehicle and the position of the boundary of a roadway area in front of the vehicle based on the surroundings information. The processor is configured to determine whether the target is in the roadway area based on the position of the target and the position of the boundary. The processor is configured to calculate the distance between the target and the boundary when the target is in the roadway area. The processor is configured to determine whether the target is crossing the roadway area based on the relationship between the distance and a time.
