In an apparatus for assisting driving a vehicle, an error calculation unit calculates errors in first information representing a driving state of the vehicle based on the first information and second information including at least one of surroundings information and external location information of the vehicle. An error correction unit corrects for the errors in the first information. If error correction performed by the error correction unit is completed, a location estimation unit estimates a location of the vehicle based on the first information corrected for the errors. A driving assistance unit performs driving assistance for the vehicle based on the location of the vehicle estimated by the location estimation unit. If error correction performed by the error correction unit is completed, a process change unit changes a process of a specific type of driving assistance performed by the driving assistance unit.
