A vehicle travelling control device (control device) 10 detects a following-up-objective-vehicle traveling in front of an own vehicle VA using a front looking radar device 21, and detects a predicted cut-in vehicle which is predicted to cut in between the own can and the following-up-objective-vehicle using the front looking radar device 21 and/or front-side looking radar devices 22L, 22R. The control device calculates, as a target acceleration for following-up travel, a target acceleration required for the own vehicle to maintain an inter-vehicle distance between the own vehicle and the following-up-objective-vehicle at a first set inter-vehicle distance; and calculates, as a target acceleration for cut-in vehicle, a target acceleration required for the own vehicle to maintain an inter-vehicle distance between the own vehicle and the predicted cut-in vehicle at a second set inter-vehicle distance. Further, the control device selects, as a mediated target acceleration, either one of the target acceleration for following-up travel and the target acceleration for cut-in vehicle, whichever is smaller, and controls a driving force and a brake force of the own vehicle that an actual acceleration of the own vehicle approaches the mediated target acceleration. |
