Abstract

A disclosed control apparatus used for a host vehicle includes a radar apparatus, a control execution part configured to perform a predetermined control to reduce a probability of a collision between the object and the host vehicle based on information about the object from the radar apparatus; and a prevention part configured to prevent the predetermined control related to a first object when the radar apparatus simultaneously detects the first object and a second object at different distances and a difference between a lateral position of the first object and the lateral position of the second object is smaller than a predetermined value, the first object being closer to the host vehicle than the second object, the lateral position being determined in a lateral direction with respect to a traveling direction of the host vehicle.
