Abstract
A braking control apparatus includes a contact determiner and a collision brake processor. The contact determiner is configured to determine whether a collision determination on a contact of a vehicle is satisfied. The collision brake processor is configured to cause a brake device of the vehicle to generate a braking force to achieve a predetermined deceleration rate of the vehicle if the contact determination is satisfied. The collision brake processor is configured to, upon determining that the brake device is in a predetermined pre-contact braking state immediately before the contact determination is satisfied, set a deceleration rate of the vehicle after the contact determination is satisfied to a value larger than in a case where the collision brake processor does not determine that the brake device is in the predetermined pre-contact braking state.
