Abstract: A pressure reduction start distance is obtained (S9) based upon a deceleration after an operation of an automatic brake. When an obstacle-to-vehicle distance between a vehicle and an obstacle ahead becomes a distance obtained by adding the pressure reduction start distance to a target stopping distance to the obstacle ahead, the reduction of the brake pressure is started (S11) to suppress a pitching vibration generated before and after the vehicle stops. When the obstacle-to-vehicle distance becomes a stopping brake start distance that is just before the target stopping distance, the brake pressure is increased (S13) so as to allow the vehicle to stop.

Abstract: Provided is a speed limiter, wherein a vehicle speed is detected, and a speed limit displayed on a speed sign is detected based on an image captured by a front monitoring camera. A speed difference between the vehicle speed and the speed limit is calculated, and an accelerator sensitivity gain is set using the speed difference as a parameter. Then an accelerator opening degree is corrected with the accelerator sensitivity gain to obtain a pseudo accelerator opening degree. A target throttle opening degree is set based on the pseudo accelerator opening degree and an engine rpm.
