As the proportion of older people in the population is growing, the demand for older driver safety is increasing sharply because their driving abilities are lowered. In this paper, we propose an autonomous emergency stop system to support older people. It activates an autonomous driving mode when the driver cannot control his vehicle any more, and stops the vehicle safely. It recognizes situation around the vehicle by using a camera, radars, and ultrasonic sensors and makes a decision about safety. The vehicle changes lanes according to the safety and stops on the side of the road.
