Abstract
An automatic travel system includes a prohibition boundary line setter to set a prohibition boundary line beyond which the vehicle is prohibited from entering, a turning circle setter to set a virtual turning circle as a target route for entry turning travel to enter a subsequent travel route, a transition turning travel controller to control tangent following travel using a vehicle body reference point that is calculated during travel to the virtual turning circle as a target orientation, and the entry turning travel using the virtual turning circle as a turning target route, an interference boundary line detector to detect the prohibition boundary line that is present in a moving direction of the vehicle in the tangent following travel, as an interference boundary line, and an interference avoidance travel controller to control travel for avoiding interference with the interference boundary line.
