A vehicle driving assistance apparatus includes a sensing unit configured to sense an object outside a vehicle, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain surrounding situation information, determine whether the object approaches the vehicle from a traveling lane or a lateral lane based on a location of the object outside the vehicle, and generate a control signal to control at least one of a drive apparatus of the vehicle, a steering apparatus of the vehicle, or a brake apparatus of the vehicle. The vehicle driving assistance apparatus enables the vehicle (i) to avoid collision between the vehicle and the object or (ii) to perform an action that reduces an impulse on the vehicle from the collision, and provide the control signal to a vehicle control system of the vehicle.
