Abstract: A work machine includes a controller (20) that performs an area restriction control for controlling at least one hydraulic cylinder (32a) of a plurality of hydraulic cylinders (32) in such a manner that a work device (400) is located on or on an upper side of an optionally set target surface (60) during operation of an operation lever (26). In the work machine, if a jack-up angle (?) as an inclination angle of a machine body (1A) relative to a ground is larger than a preset target value (?t), the controller, in performing the area restriction control, corrects the control of the at least one hydraulic cylinder (32a) in such a manner that the jack-up angle approaches the target value. The target value is set such as to vary according to posture of an arm (406).

Abstract: A travel control apparatus is provided. The travel control apparatus acquires driver abnormality information indicative of an abnormality of a driver of a vehicle, makes a determination that the driver is in a driving difficulty state based at least on the driver abnormality information, and activates a lane departure prevention function and a cruise control function of the vehicle at substantially the same time during a time period between when the driver abnormality information is acquired and when the driving difficulty state is determined. Together with activating the lane departure prevention function and the cruise control function, the travel control apparatus outputs notification request information to a human machine interface controller controlling a notification device which issues a notification to a passenger of the vehicle. The notification request information causes the notification indicative of activation of the lane departure prevention function and the cruise control function to be issued.
