Abstract: Disclosed is a vehicle traveling controller that performs emergency evacuation traveling in the case of an emergency for proper traveling control. The vehicle traveling controller determines whether the vehicle traveling in accordance with a normal traveling rule is not dangerous and becomes proper traveling or not on the basis of environmental information around a vehicle (S18), when it is determined that the vehicle traveling in accordance with the normal traveling rule becomes proper traveling, executes normal traveling control for instructing the vehicle to travel in accordance with the normal traveling rule (S20), and when vehicle traveling in accordance with the normal traveling rule does not become proper traveling, executes emergency evacuation traveling control for instructing the vehicle to perform emergency evacuation traveling which is not in accordance with the normal traveling rule (S22).

Abstract: A self-position estimating apparatus includes a storage, a local map generator, a self-position estimator, and an adjuster. The storage stores an environmental map representing a position of an obstacle present in a mobile environment. The local map generator generates a local map representing a relative position of an obstacle present around the mobile body, with respect to the mobile body. The self-position estimator estimates, among a plurality of disposing positions on a local map disposing region set in the environmental map, one of the disposing positions where most exact matching is obtained between the local map and the environmental map, as a first self-position. The self-position estimator estimates a rotation angle of the local map at the disposing position as a first posture. The adjuster adjusts a size of the local map disposing region according to a predetermined condition.
