    Abstract: A vehicle control device includes an inter-vehicle distance determination unit that determines an inter-vehicle distance, and a following control unit that performs a following control with respect to a preceding vehicle on the basis of the inter-vehicle distance determined by the inter-vehicle distance determination unit. The following control includes a first control state, and a second control state in which a burden on the driver is lighter than in the first control state, or in which a degree of automation is higher than in the first control state. A minimum value of the inter-vehicle distance that can be determined by the inter-vehicle distance determination unit in the second control state is greater than a minimum value of the inter-vehicle distance that can be determined by the inter-vehicle distance determination unit in the first control state.

    Abstract: A full speed range adaptive cruise control system for a host vehicle includes a plurality of sensors that each generate a signal, a memory that includes executable instructions and a processor that executes the executable instructions. The executable instructions enable the processor to detect a target vehicle as being stopped along a route based upon the signals from the plurality of sensors, cause the host vehicle to stop at a distance from the target vehicle, detect the target vehicle moving along the route after the host vehicle has stopped based upon the signals from the plurality of sensors, determine whether a first predetermined period of time has elapsed since the host vehicle has stopped, determine whether a first predetermined condition is satisfied if the first predetermined period of time has elapsed, and cause the host vehicle to move if the system determines that the first predetermined condition is satisfied.

    Abstract: A control method and a control apparatus for a vehicle are provided which allow a subject vehicle to start moving at an appropriate time during automated travel control in which the subject vehicle is controlled to make a stop without depending on a brake operation performed by the driver. The control method includes executing the automated travel control in which the subject vehicle is controlled to make a stop without depending on the braking operation performed by the driver, and when detecting a stop of a preceding vehicle during execution of the automated travel control, presenting start-moving command information for reminding the driver of a start-moving command for the subject vehicle.

    Abstract: A vehicle controlling apparatus includes a setting unit and an acquiring unit. The setting unit is configured to set a target inter-vehicle distance. The acquiring unit is configured to acquire position information of a temporary stopping location on a traveling route on which an own vehicle travels. The setting unit is configured to, on a condition that the own vehicle travels to follow a preceding vehicle, and that the acquiring unit has acquired the position information of the temporary stopping location, make a setting change to make the target inter-vehicle distance greater than a normal setting value when a distance from the own vehicle to the temporary stopping location reaches a predetermined distance, and make a setting change to bring the target inter-vehicle distance closer to the normal setting value in accordance with the distance until the own vehicle reaches the temporary stopping location.
