PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately determine other vehicle which is further likely to encounter a self-vehicle.SOLUTION: An encountering vehicle determination device comprises: a self-vehicle intersection entry probability estimation unit 33 for estimating probability of entry of a self-vehicle into a self-vehicle intersection on a self-vehicle route on a map; an other-vehicle intersection extraction unit 35 for, on the basis of vehicle information acquired from an other-vehicle through inter-vehicle communication, extracting an other-vehicle intersection on a route where the other-vehicle, which is matched with one of the self-vehicle route and a connection road within a fixed range connected to the self-vehicle intersection, runs toward the self-vehicle route; an other-vehicle intersection entry probability estimation unit 36 for estimating probability of entry into the extracted other-vehicle intersection; an encounter probability calculation unit 37 for calculating probability that the self-vehicle encounters the other-vehicle at the self-vehicle intersection from the estimated probability of entry of the self-vehicle into the self-vehicle intersection and the estimated probability of entry of the other-vehicle into the other-vehicle intersection; and an encounter determination unit 38 for determining the other-vehicle which has the calculated probability of encounter of a threshold or more as an other-vehicle which encounters the self-vehicle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 |
