VEHICLE TRAVELING CONTROL APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To secure proper trajectory followability even when a function of detecting steering input information in a device has a failure, while releasing an odd feeling caused by interference with a driver's steering operation.

SOLUTION: A vehicle traveling control apparatus includes: a trajectory control device for controlling a variable steering angle device so that a trajectory of a vehicle comes near a target path; an obtaining device for obtaining the steering input information on a steering input applied to a steering input shaft via a steering wheel by the driver of the vehicle; and a response change device for changing a response of trajectory control by the trajectory control device according to the obtained steering input information and for improving the response of the trajectory control when the steering input cannot be obtained.
