Abstract
There is provided a running-support system and a running-support method capable of providing more suitable running support at the time of turning a curve. In the running-support system or the running-support method, a steering-support section provides steering support using at least one of a piece of map information on a curve and a lane image picked up by an image pickup section at the time of turning the curve. The steering-support section suppresses the steering support without being based on the piece of map information when the steering-support section detects an end point of the curve on the basis of the lane image.
