Abstract: An AEB controller is configured to operate AEB if a laser radar detects an obstacle ahead, and stops operating the AEB if an accelerator pedal sensor detects an accelerator operation equal to or larger than a first operating amount. A PTC controller is configured to operate PTC in which engine power of an own vehicle is reduced and PTC autonomous braking is performed, if the obstacle ahead is detected and the accelerator operation equal to or larger than a second operating amount which is smaller than the first operating amount is detected, in a state where a vehicle speed detected by a vehicle speed sensor is within a predetermined vehicle speed range. An adjuster is configured to prioritize the PTC autonomous braking when an operating condition for the PTC autonomous braking and a stop condition for the AEB are both satisfied.

Abstract: A brake controller operates PTC when an obstacle sensor detects an obstacle ahead, a vehicle speed sensor detects a vehicle speed equal to or lower than a predetermined vehicle speed, and an operation of an accelerator pedal equal to or greater than a predetermined depression amount is detected. When detection of the obstacle ahead is lost while the PTC is operating and the PTC is to be cancelled, the brake controller operates a power limiting control if a depression operation of the accelerator pedal is detected. The power limiting control limits an engine power to cause acceleration to be lower than a requested acceleration corresponding to a depression amount of the accelerator pedal.
