PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid own vehicle from colliding with a second obstacle which exists in the going back direction when own vehicle is made to go back in order to avoid collision with a first obstacle which is approaching from a right and left direction at an intersection, etc. with poor visibility. SOLUTION: The collision of the first obstacle with the own vehicle is avoided by: extracting another vehicle which is approaching the own vehicle as the first obstacle by an obstacle extraction means M3 based on a detected result by an object detection means M2; determining the degree of risk of the first obstacle colliding with own vehicle by a degree of risk determining means M5; and varying the proceeding direction in which the own vehicle is to go back by a proceeding direction varying means M10 when the degree of a first risk is a prescribed value or more. In this case, collision with a second obstacle due to avoiding the collision with the first obstacle is prevented by determining the degree of a second risk for the own vehicle colliding with the second obstacle which exists in the going back direction by the degree of risk determining means M5 and varying the proceeding direction of the own vehicle by the proceeding direction varying means M10 according to the degree of the second risk.
