Abstract
Obstacle determination systems and programs detect back-and-forth steering that is behavior of a vehicle for avoiding an obstacle. The systems and programs determine that the obstacle is present between a point where the back-and-forth steering has started and a point where the back-and-forth steering has ended when a steering start road and a steering end road are identical roads. The steering start road is a road where the vehicle is present at a start of the back-and-forth steering. The steering end road is a road where the vehicle is present at an end of the back-and-forth steering.
