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: 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.
