    摘要: A vehicle control device has a first calculating unit calculating a first arrival time until a vehicle reaches a lane change position where a first lane along which the vehicle is traveling and a second lane merge, or the first lane and the second lane separates, a second calculating unit calculating a second arrival time until another vehicle traveling along the second lane reaches the lane change position, and a speed control unit controlling the speed of the vehicle such that the vehicle enables to make a lane change to the second lane ahead of the other vehicle when the first arrival time is shorter than the second arrival time, and controlling the speed of the vehicle such that the vehicle enables to make a lane change to the second lane behind the other vehicle when the first arrival time is equal to or greater than the second arrival time.

    摘要: A vehicle speed control device 1 includes a lane detection unit 120 configured to detect a road outside line of a lane on which a host vehicle V is traveling, a target detection unit 121 configured to detect a target that is present outside the road outside line, and a speed control unit 123 configured to control a speed of the host vehicle V such that the host vehicle V passes a lateral side of the target at a speed lower than a speed of the host vehicle V when the target has been detected. After the host vehicle V has passed the lateral side of the target, the speed control unit 123 accelerates the host vehicle V up to the speed when the target has been detected.
