Data corresponding to the plurality of objects within a predetermined region is united into a target object corresponding to a large-sized vehicle. If one of the objects is in a region spaced forward a predetermined distance from a representative position of the target object, which is spaced leftwards in a direction toward at an estimated locus at a predetermined distance apart from a left end point of the representative position, which is spaced forward at a predetermined distance from the subject vehicle and which is included in the estimated locus of the subject vehicle, one of the objects is separated as a target object corresponding to a small-sized vehicle from the original target object to control the traveling of the subject vehicle relative to the small-sized vehicle within the estimated locus.
