Abstract: A collision damage reduction apparatus executes a collision damage reduction control to reduce damage due to a collision of an own vehicle with an object. The apparatus executes the collision damage reduction control when the object exists in a first area. The first area is an area in a moving direction of the own vehicle and has a first width set, based on a width of the own vehicle. The apparatus executes the collision damage reduction control when the object does not exist in the first area, but the object predictively exists in a second area after a predetermined period of time. The second area is an area in the moving direction of the own vehicle and has a width smaller than the first width.

Abstract: A vehicle control device comprises an accelerator (22a) which a driver of a vehicle operates in order to accelerate the vehicle, and a controller configured to execute a limit control for imposing a limitation on a driving force, in such a manner that the driving force is prevented from becoming excessively large, when a predetermined limit condition is satisfied. The controller executes the limit control and a mistaken operation notification, when a mistaken operation state has been occurring. The controller executes a failure notification, when the mistaken operation state has not been occurring at a failure occurrence time point at which a control failure that the controller cannot execute the limit control has occurred. The controller continues executing the mistaken operation notification without executing the failure notification at the failure occurrence time point, if the mistaken operation state has been occurring at the failure occurrence time point.
