Abstract
A vehicle driving assist device includes an oncoming moving body recognizer configured to recognize an oncoming moving body; a lateral position distribution characteristics acquisition unit configured to acquire distribution characteristics of a lateral position of the oncoming moving body; a risk determination region setting unit configured to set, based on the distribution characteristics, a risk determination region for calculating a risk degree; a risk degree calculator configured to calculate the risk degree for the oncoming moving body; and a preliminary collision avoidance controller configured to recognize the oncoming moving body as the obstacle in accordance with the risk degree, and perform preliminary collision avoidance control in response to the oncoming moving body prior to the emergency collision avoidance control. The risk determination region setting unit is further configured to variably set the risk determination region so that the risk degree relatively increases as the distribution characteristics tend to disperse.
