Abstract
The vehicle driving assist apparatus can execute at least one of an acceleration/deceleration control as a driving assist control to automatically accelerate and decelerate an own vehicle and a steering control as the driving assist control to automatically steer the own vehicle. The vehicle driving assist apparatus includes a driving assist restart switch operated by a driver of the own vehicle to restart the driving assist control. The vehicle driving assist apparatus does not restart the acceleration/deceleration control even when the driving assist restart switch is operated after stopping the acceleration/deceleration control in response to the driver performing an automatic acceleration/deceleration rejection operation. The vehicle driving assist apparatus does not restart the steering control even when the driving assist restart switch is operated after stopping the steering control in response to the driver performing an automatic steering rejection operation.
