To achieve smooth merging of a vehicle while suppressing a feeling of discomfort of a driver to the minimum.MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEM: A vehicle travelling control device 10, which can be used for controlling travelling of a vehicle 1 that is travelling on a merging section, selects a vehicle to be controlled from vehicles 2 travelling on a merging original lane L2 on the merging section, by comparing front and back positions at a front end of the vehicle with each other, and controls travelling of the vehicle 1 travelling on the merging destination lane L1 so that the selected vehicle to be controlled can merge to a point just in front of the vehicle 1 on the merging destination lane L1. When selecting the vehicle to be controlled, the vehicle travelling control device 10 controls travelling of the vehicle 1 on the merging destination lane L1 so that the vehicle to be controlled travelling on the merging original lane L2 can merge to a point just in front of an own vehicle, on the merging destination lane L1. Unless selecting the vehicle to be controlled, the vehicle travelling control device 10 does not execute control by which the vehicle on the merging original lane L2 can merge to the point just in front of the own vehicle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 7
【課題】ドライバへの違和感を最小限に抑えつつ、スムースな合流を実現する。【解決方法】合流区間を走行する車両1の走行を制御するために用いることができる車両走行の制御装置10は、合流区間の合流元車線L2を走行する車両2の中から、車両の前端の前後位置を比較により制御対象の車両を選択し、選択した制御対象の車両を合流先車線L1において車両1の直前に合流させるように、合流先車線L1を走行する車両1の走行を制御する。車両走行の制御装置10は、制御対象の車両が選択されている場合には、合流元車線L2の制御対象の車両が合流先車線L1において自車の直前に合流するように、合流先車線L1の車両1の走行を制御する。制御対象の車両が選択されていない場合には、車両走行の制御装置10は、合流元車線L2の車両を自車の直前に合流させる制御を実行しない。【選択図】 図7
