A cruising lane recognition device, which is to be mounted on a vehicle, includes a camera which captures an image of an area of the road ahead of a vehicle, a luminance detection section which detects luminances within the images, and a cruising lane recognizing section which recognizes a cruising lane-marker of the road in the images on the basis of the detected luminances. The device further includes a storing section in which a position of the recognized cruising lane-marker is stored, and a virtual cruising lane-marker setting means which sets a virtual cruising lane-marker, based on of a an archival record of the position of a cruising lane-marker which has been stored in the storing section, in a case where the cruising lane recognizing section cannot recognize the cruising lane-marker. |
