Abstract: An alert apparatus starts alerting a driver of a host vehicle, when an oncoming vehicle, that is an other vehicle traveling in an oncoming lane with respect to a traveling lane in which the host vehicle is traveling so as to approach the host vehicle and that is predicted to pass through on a specific direction side with respect to a current position of the host vehicle, is present, a turn signal indicator of the host vehicle corresponding to the specific direction side is being operated, and it is likely that the host vehicle starts turning to the specific direction side.

Abstract: A driving assist ECU determines that a current situation is a specific situation where it is predicted that there is no object that is about to enter an adjacent lane from an area outside of a host vehicle road on which a host vehicle is traveling, when a road-side object is detected at a part around an edge of the adjacent lane, and/or when a white line painted to define the adjacent lane is detected at the part around the edge of the adjacent lane and no object near the detected white line is detected. The driving assist ECU does not perform a steering control for avoiding a collision, the steering control for letting the vehicle enter the adjacent lane, when it is not determined that the current situation is the specific situation.

Abstract: Disclosed is a driving assist apparatus which executes a process for collision avoidance when the possibility of collision of a vehicle with an obstacle is high. When the steering angle of the steering wheel is greater than an angle threshold, the apparatus determines that a driver is trying to avoid the collision by operating the steering wheel and does not execute the collision avoidance process. When the vehicle is making a right turn or a left turn, there arises a possibility that the collision avoidance process is not executed even in a situation where the collision avoidance process must be executed. In view of this, when the vehicle is making a right turn or a left turn, the angle threshold mentioned above is set to a larger value as compared with the case where the vehicle is not making a right turn or a left turn.

Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus performs automatic braking control when an execution condition is satisfied, in a case where a lap rate of the obstacle is a threshold lap rate or more. Furthermore, the vehicle control apparatus performs automatic steering control when the execution condition is satisfied, in a case where the lap rate is less than the threshold lap rate and furthermore an avoidance area in which the vehicle can avoid a collision with the obstacle without traveling out of a self-lane and passage of the vehicle is not blocked by a passage inhibition object. The vehicle control apparatus performs the automatic braking control when a special condition including a condition that the execution condition is satisfied at least is satisfied, if the passage inhibition object exists, in a case where the lap rate is less than the threshold lap rate and furthermore the avoidance area does not exist.

Abstract: Collision avoidance assist apparatus comprises an object information acquiring apparatus for acquiring, as object information, information on a three-dimensional object as well as dividing lines defining a travelling lane in front of a vehicle, and a control unit configured to, when a collision possibility with a three-dimensional object is high, identify this object as a target object. When one of the dividing lines has been detected without any discontinuation in a predetermined region as well as a part of an other dividing line has not been detected therein, if the control unit determines, based on the object information, that a second condition which is satisfied when the target object is positioned on the other dividing line and is moving in a same direction as an extending direction is satisfied and an avoidance route exists, the control unit performs automatic steering control so that the vehicle travels along the avoidance route.

Abstract: A driving support apparatus comprises a controller for performing collision avoidance braking control and lane deviation suppressing control. When a performing condition of the lane deviation suppressing control is satisfied at a timing of the collision avoidance braking control is about to be performed, the controller makes direction determination processing for determining whether or not the own vehicle travels to a direction toward which it will collide with a target object or to a direction toward which it will avoid colliding with the target object. In the direction determination processing, when it is determined the own vehicle travels to a collision direction, the controller stops the lane deviation suppressing control to perform the collision avoidance braking control, and when it is determined the own vehicle travels to a collision avoidance direction, the controller performs cooperative control for making the lane deviation suppressing control cooperate with the collision avoidance braking control.

Abstract: A driving assist ECU determines that a current situation is a specific situation where it is predicted that there is no object that is about to enter an adjacent lane from an area outside of a host vehicle road on which a host vehicle is traveling, when a road-side object is detected at a part around an edge of the adjacent lane, and/or when a white line painted to define the adjacent lane is detected at the part around the edge of the adjacent lane and no object near the detected white line is detected. The driving assist ECU does not perform a steering control for avoiding a collision, the steering control for letting the vehicle enter the adjacent lane, when it is not determined that the current situation is the specific situation.

Abstract: A vehicle driving assist apparatus of the invention starts a collision avoidance steering assist control to automatically steer the vehicle to avoid a collision of the vehicle with the obstacle in response to a driver performing a collision avoidance steering operation for avoiding the collision when there is a possibility that the vehicle collides with the obstacle. The vehicle driving assist apparatus cancels the collision avoidance steering assist control in response to the driver performing a counter collision avoidance steering operation against automatically steering the vehicle intended to be achieved by the collision avoidance steering assist control after a first predetermined time elapses from starting the collision avoidance steering assist control.

Abstract: Disclosed is a collision avoidance assisting apparatus which can execute an automatic braking process and an automatic steering process for avoiding collision with an obstacle. When the magnitude of a steering angle exceeds a predetermined threshold, the collision avoidance assisting apparatus determines that a driver has an intention of avoiding the collision by a steering operation and stops the automatic braking process and the automatic steering process. However, in such a case, the automatic braking process and the automatic steering process may be stopped when the steering angle exceeds the threshold as a result of execution of the automatic steering process. In view of this, when both the automatic braking process and the automatic steering process are being executed, the collision avoidance assisting apparatus continues the automatic braking process and the automatic steering process even when the magnitude of the steering angle is greater than the predetermined threshold.

Abstract: When a host vehicle is likely to collide with an object ahead, a vehicle collision-avoidance assist device sets a target avoidance path by which the collision is avoidable, and executes avoidance steering of forcibly steering the host vehicle so as to travel along the target avoidance path upon an avoidance steering starting condition being met. When another vehicle traveling next to the host vehicle is a vehicle traveling alongside, the device stores a vehicle-traveling-alongside travel region, and when the other vehicle is an oncoming vehicle, the device stores an oncoming vehicle travel region, and acquires a travel region of the host vehicle along the target avoidance path as an avoidance travel region. The device does not execute the avoidance steering when the avoidance travel region overlaps with the oncoming vehicle travel region, but executes the avoidance steering when the avoidance travel region overlaps with the vehicle-traveling-alongside travel region.
