A vehicle control apparatus (80) executes automated cruise control under which a steering apparatus (10) is controlled to make a vehicle (1) perform automated cruise. The vehicle control apparatus (80) sets a curvature radius difference threshold used in a process for determining whether to start automated cruise control, based on a transverse deviation of the vehicle (1). The vehicle control apparatus (80) does not start the automated cruise control when the absolute value of a curvature radius difference is larger than the curvature radius difference threshold. The curvature radius difference is a difference between a travelling path curvature radius and a lane curvature radius, the travelling path curvature radius being a curvature radius of a travelling path of the vehicle (1) and the lane curvature radius being a curvature radius of a lane in which the vehicle (1) is travelling. |
