Abstract

A lane departure control system is provided which works to control a lane departure of a vehicle. The lane departure control system determines a controlled angle between a heading direction and a target direction of the vehicle running in a lane. When the vehicle is expected to unintentionally leave the lane, the system steers the vehicle toward the center of the lane by the controlled angle at at least a first yaw rate in a first angular range and a second yaw rate in a second angular range following the first angular range. Each of the first and second yaw rates is changed at a constant rate. This results in simplified calculation of the schedule of changing the first and second yaw rates.
