In a preceding vehicle selection apparatus, for each object ahead, a relative position, a relative speed, and width information indicating a lateral width are determined. A lateral position of the object ahead with reference to a traveling direction of the own vehicle is corrected by using the width information of the object ahead. Based on the relative position of the object ahead of, which the lateral position has been corrected, an own vehicle lane probability is calculated for each object ahead. A preceding vehicle is selected from the objects ahead based on the calculated own vehicle lane probability. Based on a value of a correlated parameter that has correlation with error in the lateral position or error in the width information, a correction amount of the lateral position is reduced as error in the lateral position or error in the width information becomes large.
