A traveling control apparatus is configured to control automated driving traveling of a vehicle based on a set automated driving level. The traveling control apparatus comprises: an acquisition unit configured to acquire traveling scene information that specifies a traveling scene of the vehicle; and a control unit configured to perform offset control to offset a traveling position of the vehicle in a vehicle width direction to increase a distance to another vehicle traveling side by side with the vehicle. The control unit performs the offset control by setting one of a first mode and a second mode based on at least one of the traveling scene information and the automated driving level.
