TRAVEL CONTROL APPARATUS, TRAVEL CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM

Abstract:

A travel control apparatus that controls travel of a vehicle, comprises: a recognition unit configured to recognize external environment of the vehicle; and a travel control unit configured to control travel of the vehicle based on a result of recognition by the recognition unit. When the vehicle proceeds, at an intersection, to an intersecting traffic lane that intersects a traffic lane in which the vehicle travels, if the intersection is an intersection that satisfies a condition, the travel control unit controls the travel of the vehicle by a different travel control from a travel control for causing the vehicle to proceed through an intersection that does not satisfy the condition.
