Abstract
A vehicle traveling control apparatus includes a sensor and a traveling control processor configured to function as an identification unit and a tentative identification calculation unit. The identification unit identifies whether the target detected by the sensor is a ghost or a real object based on results of the detection for first number of measurement cycles, and if the target is the real object and a possibility that the target and the vehicle come into contact with each other is present, causes a first traveling control to be executed. The tentative identification calculation unit determines whether the target is the ghost or the real object based on results of the detection for second number of measurement cycles, and when the target is the ghost and the possibility is present, causes a second traveling control to be executed. The second number is less than the first number.
