Abstract
Evacuation control such as deceleration or stop of a vehicle is executed in response to an application from a driver of the vehicle for refusal of switching to manual driving. It is a moving apparatus that is switchable between automatic driving and manual driving and includes a driver information acquisition unit that acquires driver information of a driver of the moving apparatus, an environmental information acquisition unit that acquires surrounding information of the moving apparatus, a takeover abandonment input unit that inputs, to a system, takeover refusal information for a driver to refuse driving takeover to change automatic driving of the moving apparatus to manual driving, and a data processing unit that checks a switching point from automatic driving to manual driving on the basis of information acquired by the environmental information acquisition unit and executes a manual driving return request notification to the driver before reaching the switching point, in which the data processing unit further executes an evacuation process of a vehicle in response to a takeover abandonment input.
