A driving condition determination apparatus includes: an image obtaining device for obtaining a driver face image; a direction detector for detecting a face direction and/or a visual line direction of the driver; a steering wheel angle detector for determining whether a steering wheel angle exceeds a threshold value; and a determination device for determining whether the face direction and/or the visual line direction, which has been detected within a time interval just before the steering wheel angle exceeds the threshold value, satisfies a first condition and/or a second condition. The first condition is that the face direction and/or the visual line direction turns to a rearview mirror of the vehicle, and the second condition is that the face direction and/or the visual line direction turns to a door mirror or a side mirror on a side, to which the steering wheel is turned. |
