Abstract: A vehicle control system generates at least one primary candidate of a target trajectory for an automated driving of a vehicle and executes a primary evaluation. An evaluation index of the primary evaluation includes a travel safety level of a travel to follow the primary candidate. The primary candidate having highest travel safety level is selected as at least one strong candidate of the target trajectory. If only one is selected as the strong candidate, the vehicle control system determines the selected strong candidate as a finalist candidate of the target trajectory. If two or more strong candidates are selected, the vehicle control system executes a secondary evaluation for the strong candidates to determine the finalist candidate. An additional evaluation index is used in the secondary evaluation.
