Abstract
An apparatus for controlling driving of a vehicle including a sensor that detects an input amount of an accelerator pedal applied a user and includes a controller. The controller determines an erroneous actuation of the accelerator pedal based on the input amount of the accelerator pedal and determines whether to release autonomous driving according to whether the accelerator pedal is erroneously pressed or actuated. In technology that controls autonomous driving by remotely generating autonomous driving control values, it is possible to improve the functional safety of a vehicle by determining whether to release the autonomous driving by determining a user's erroneous input or actuation of the accelerator pedal.
