Abstract: A driving support system for a vehicle includes an information obtainer, a target vehicle speed calculator, a comparison processor, and a determination processor. The information obtainer is configured to obtain curvature information about a curvature of a driving lane of the vehicle and about a curvature of an adjacent lane. The adjacent lane is adjacent to the driving lane. The target vehicle speed calculator is configured to calculate a target vehicle speed in the driving lane and a target vehicle speed in the adjacent lane using the curvature information. The comparison processor is configured to compare a difference between the target vehicle speed in the driving lane and the target vehicle speed in the adjacent lane with a threshold. If the difference is greater than or equal to the threshold, the determination processor is configured to determine that a road branches off in a traveling direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: A driving assistance device includes a forward recognizer configured to recognize a forward situation of a vehicle, a brake controller configured to perform brake control, and a determiner configured to determine execution of the brake control and drive control based on target data obtained by the forward recognizer and/or from map information. The brake controller performs the brake control to stop the vehicle at a position before a stop line of a road surface, based on a recognition result from the forward recognizer. When the vehicle stops and the forward situation is determined to be safe the determiner slowly drives the vehicle to another position before a crossing road edge where the road on which the vehicle drives intersects with another road. When the vehicle is at the other position and the forward situation is determined to be safe, the determiner slowly drives the vehicle from the other position by a predetermined distance.
