    摘要: A travel control apparatus is configured to perform an overtaking travel on a host vehicle with a vehicle travelling ahead as an overtaking target vehicle during an autonomous driving of the host vehicle. In a case where the overtaking travel starts, the apparatus determines whether or not the overtaking target vehicle accelerates during the overtaking travel. In a case where it is determined that the overtaking target vehicle accelerates, the apparatus determines whether or not a front vehicle is present in front of the overtaking target vehicle. In a case where it is determined that the front vehicle is not present, the apparatus stops the overtaking travel of the host vehicle, and in a case where it is determined that the front vehicle is present, the apparatus continues the overtaking travel of the host vehicle under a predetermined condition.

    摘要: A system for automated operation of a host-vehicle includes a vehicle-control device, an object-detection device, and a controller. The vehicle-control device is operable to control one or more of acceleration of the host-vehicle, braking of the host-vehicle, and steering of the host-vehicle. The object-detection device is operable to detect a rearward-vehicle located behind the host-vehicle. The controller is configured to determine when the object-detection device indicates that a rear-end collision into the host-vehicle by the rearward-vehicle is imminent, and operate the vehicle-control device to reduce the effect of the rear-end collision experienced by an operator of the host-vehicle when the rear-end collision is imminent.

    摘要: A system and method for assisting a driver are provided. The method includes receiving, by a controller, vehicle traveling information and calculating a first distance between a present vehicle position and an end node. In addition, the controller is configured to calculate a second distance between the present vehicle position and a preceding vehicle based on the receiving information and calculate a third distance in which coasting is available until a present vehicle speed reaches a predetermined target speed. The method further includes determining, by the controller, whether coasting is available based on the first distance, the second distance, the third distance in which coasting is available, and a present vehicle speed of the vehicle, and outputting, when coasting is available, a message that instructs coasting.
