Abstract
A vehicle control apparatus performs a front collision avoidance control when the frontward object satisfies a predetermined front collision condition, and performs a side collision avoidance control when the sideward object satisfies a predetermined side collision condition. The vehicle control apparatus suppresses performing the side collision avoidance control in a case where the sideward object is located in an overlapping area between a sideward detection area and a frontward detection area, as compared to a case where the sideward object is located in a non-overlapping area that is a rest of the sideward detection area other than the overlapping area.
