Abstract

A driver assistance system for assisting in driving a vehicle includes at least one processor and at least one memory communicatably coupled to the processor. Upon providing the vehicle with driver assistance in a predetermined area including installation spots where observation sensors are installed and travel routes are present from a first installation spot to a second installation spot, the processor: carries out information acquisition processing of acquiring frequency information for each combination of the first and second installation spots that indicating frequency at which passing vehicles that have passed the first installation spot pass the second installation spot; and carries out estimation processing of estimating possibility of collision between a vehicle of which a planned travel route in the predetermined area is recognizable, and a random vehicle devoid of a road-to-vehicle communication function to communicate with the observation sensor, based on the acquired frequency information.
