Abstract
A steering control device is provided that calculates a white line approach suppression turning amount that is based on a distance between a host vehicle is separated from either a left or a right white line when a host vehicle approaches either a left or a right white line. The steering control device controls a turning unit for turning a turnable wheel based on the white line approach suppression turning amount, and upon determining that the other among the left and right white lines cannot be detected and a distance between the host vehicle and the left or right white line is decreasing, an increase in the white line approach suppression turning amount is inhibited while permitting a decrease in the white line approach suppression turning amount.
