Abstract: A vehicle control device includes: a driving controller configured to perform first driving control such that one or both of an acceleration or deceleration speed and steering of a vehicle is controlled to travel the vehicle; an occupant intention detector configured to detect an intention of the occupant to switch from manual driving to a state in which the driving controller performs the first driving control; and a one-way traffic determiner configured to determine whether a road on which the vehicle is predicted to be traveling or travel in future is a one-way traffic road. The driving controller determines whether to start the first driving control based on whether the one-way traffic determiner determines the road on which the vehicle is predicted to be traveling or travel in future is the one-way traffic road.

Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus includes: a road recognizer that recognizes a road form around a vehicle; a second-vehicle recognizer that recognizes a state of another vehicle around the vehicle; and a driving controller that allows the vehicle to travel by controlling one or both of steering and acceleration/deceleration of the vehicle and that prevents, upon passing of the vehicle through an intersection, passing of the vehicle through the intersection based on a presence of the other vehicle recognized by the second-vehicle recognizer, wherein in a case where the driving controller recognizes, by the road recognizer, that a plurality of lanes are present in a road of a right/left turn destination of the vehicle and recognizes, by the second-vehicle recognizer, that the other vehicle, which was an opposing vehicle approaching from a direction opposing the vehicle, has entered a lane on a rear side in a view from the vehicle among the plurality of lanes in the road of the right/left turn destination, the drivin

Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus, a vehicle control method, and a program that can curb unnecessary driving control are provided.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a recognizer that is configured to recognize an object around a subject vehicle, a driving controller that is configured to control a speed or steering of the subject vehicle, and a predictor that is configured to predict that a predetermined vehicle will move to a front of the subject vehicle on a subject lane. The driving controller is configured to perform a behavior control in a case where it is predicted that the predetermined vehicle will move to the front of the subject vehicle on the subject lane and limits the vehicle behavior control in a case where it is predicted that the predetermined vehicle does not move to the front of the subject vehicle on the subject lane as compared with a case where it is predicted that the vehicle will move to the front of the subject vehicle on the subject lane.

Abstract: A vehicle control device (100) includes a recognizer (130) that recognizes a situation occurring near an own-vehicle, and a driving controller (140, 160) that controls acceleration/deceleration and steering of the own-vehicle on the basis of a result of the recognition of the recognizer. When performing travel control according to a behavior of a preceding vehicle that is traveling in front of the own-vehicle such that the own-vehicle follows the preceding vehicle to pass through an intersection, the driving controller does not perform following of the preceding vehicle if a turning start point of the preceding vehicle does not match a turning start point in a route predicted for the own-vehicle to pass through the intersection in a scheduled direction or if a turning angle of the preceding vehicle does not match a turning angle in the predicted route.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a recognizer which recognizes objects around a host vehicle, a determiner which determines whether a speed of a preceding vehicle present ahead of the host vehicle in a host lane in which the host vehicle is present among one or more objects recognized by the recognizer is less than a predetermined speed and determines whether predetermined conditions with respect to conditions ahead of the preceding vehicle are satisfied when it is determined that the speed of the preceding vehicle is less than the predetermined speed, and a driving controller which causes the host vehicle to overtake at least the preceding vehicle by controlling the speed and steering of the host vehicle when the determiner determines that the predetermined conditions are satisfied.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a recognizer configured to recognize a physical object in the vicinity of a host vehicle, a predictor configured to predict that a crossing vehicle will have a prescribed speed or less in a host vehicle lane in which the host vehicle is present on the basis of a state of an oncoming vehicle when the crossing vehicle whose traveling direction is a direction crossing a traveling direction of the host vehicle and the oncoming vehicle with respect to the host vehicle approach a future arrival point of the host vehicle, and a driving controller configured to perform avoidance control for causing the host vehicle to avoid approaching the crossing vehicle by controlling at least one of speed and steering of the host vehicle when the crossing vehicle will have the prescribed speed or less in the host vehicle lane.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes an avoidance determination unit configured to determine whether or not each of a structure and an oncoming vehicle is able to avoid a contact with a subject vehicle on the basis of a position of the structure and a position of the oncoming vehicle, and a driving control unit configured to control one or both of steering or acceleration and deceleration of the subject vehicle to cause the subject vehicle to travel and configured to stop the subject vehicle until the oncoming vehicle passes by the subject vehicle in a case where a state of a dead angle region of the structure is not able to be recognized, even in a case where it is determined that the contact between each of the structure and the oncoming vehicle and the subject vehicle is able to be avoided by the avoidance determination unit.
