Abstract: A travel control device for controlling travel of a vehicle, comprises a device that acquires external information of a vehicle; a travel control unit configured to control travel of the vehicle using an acquisition result by the device; a diagnosis start unit configured to start a diagnosis process of the device; and a restriction unit configured to restrict a function of travel control of the vehicle after the diagnosis process of the device is started by the diagnosis start unit according to a state of travel control of the vehicle before the diagnosis process of the device is started.

Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle control apparatus for controlling traveling of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising: a stop control unit configured to move the vehicle in a vehicle width direction and stop the vehicle in a traveling state; a notification unit configured to make a notification of the stop of the vehicle; and a change unit configured to change a notification method by the notification unit in accordance with a stop mode of the vehicle stopped by the stop control unit.

Abstract: Even in the case that a learning flag and an ACC permission flag are not set, if a power switch is in an ON state, a travel control of a second control state, which is capable of being executed in a setting in which an inter-vehicle distance setting is a short setting or a host vehicle velocity setting is a low setting, is carried out.
