Abstract

A reverse support apparatus comprises a storage device in which a forward path passed by a vehicle when the vehicle travels forward is stored, and a controller configured to be able to execute a reverse support control for the vehicle to travel backward along the forward path. The controller makes a suggestion to a driver of the vehicle to execute the reverse support control, when it is determined that a suggestion condition is satisfied based on a situation around the vehicle or a backward path passed by the vehicle when the vehicle travels backward. The controller executes the reverse support control when the driver consents the suggestion.
