Abstract
A vehicle travel control device includes a control instruction value calculation unit, a driver acceleration intent quantification unit, and a control instruction value correction determination unit that determines whether correction of a control instruction value is required in response to a quantified driver's acceleration intent. The vehicle travel control device also includes a control instruction value correction unit that corrects the control instruction value in response to a correction determination result of the control instruction value correction determination unit. The driver acceleration intent quantification unit quantifies the driver's acceleration intent using an integral value of the longitudinal jerk occurring according to the brake operation of the driver.
