When own vehicle starts and accelerates involving course-change, the own vehicle is started with appropriate timing, and changes a course safely and swiftly. The vehicle control apparatus (1) includes externality recognizing means (2) that recognizes a moving body (C1, P1) and a road shape around the own vehicle (100), and that calculates a position, a moving direction and moving speed of the moving body, estimating means (6) for specifying an intersection position (Xc1 and Xp1) between an expected course (r) of the own vehicle and an expected course (Rc1, Rp1) of the moving body, acceleration pattern producing means (7) for producing a plurality of acceleration patterns (f(t), F(t), f(t + Ts), F(t+Ts)), acceleration pattern selecting/setting means (8) for selecting and setting one of the plurality of acceleration patterns in which the own vehicle and the moving body do not pass the intersection position at the same time, and vehicle driving means (9) for starting and accelerating the own vehicle based on the selected and set acceleration pattern. |
