A radar device set on an automobile includes a transmitter for transmitting forward a beam of electromagnetic waves, a receiver for receiving reflected waves of the transmitted beam from a vehicle traveling in front, a measuring device for measuring a distance to the vehicle in front based on outputs from the receiver and a command outputting device for outputting a specified command signal when the distance measured by the measuring device is decreasing and reaches a threshold distance below which the measuring device becomes incapable of measuring the distance from the outputs from the receiver, and a beam adjusting device for changing either the elevation angle of the beam or its angular range of vision in response to the command signal.
