A travel controller requests a driver of a vehicle to perform a pre-lane-change action required of the driver to make a lane change from a first lane to a second lane adjoining the first lane, and changes the speed of the vehicle with a first acceleration until the driver performs the pre-lane-change action after the request and with a second acceleration having a greater absolute value than the first acceleration after the driver performs the pre-lane-change action, thereby controlling the speed of the vehicle to reduce the distance to a lane change position defined to make the lane change. The lane change position depends on the positional relationship between the vehicle and a moving object on the second lane.
