An automated driving assist apparatus includes a traffic information acquirer, a traffic congestion determiner, a distance comparator, a lane-change start determiner, and a lane-change controller. When the traffic congestion determiner determines that a passing lane adjacent to a lane regulation zone is congested, the distance comparator calculates a distance to the lane regulation zone and an estimated distance to a traffic queue based on road traffic information acquired by the traffic information acquirer, and compares the distance to the lane regulation zone with the estimated distance to the traffic queue. When the distance to the lane regulation zone is longer than the estimated distance to the traffic queue, the lane-change start determiner determines whether the estimated distance to the traffic queue reaches a lane-change start distance. When the estimated distance to the traffic queue reaches the lane-change start distance, the lane-change controller causes the own vehicle to change lanes.
