A driving support system includes a driving support apparatus that receives a information related to a predetermined spot, determines whether or not the predetermined spot is present ahead in a subject vehicle lane in which a subject vehicle is present based on this information, causes an in-car instrument to perform a predetermined operation based on a relative distance between an object present in an adjacent lane and the subject vehicle when the predetermined spot is not present ahead in the subject vehicle lane, and restrains the in-car instrument from performing the predetermined operation when the predetermined spot is present ahead in the subject vehicle lane.
