Abstract
An autonomous driving vehicle includes a first reference straight steering angle acquisition unit configured to acquire a first reference straight steering angle which is a steering angle of the autonomous driving vehicle in a straight travelling state, a second reference straight steering angle acquisition unit configured to acquire a second reference straight steering angle which is the steering angle when a magnitude of a difference between an estimated yaw rate estimated from the steering angle of the autonomous driving vehicle and the yaw rate of the autonomous driving vehicle detected from the yaw rate sensor is less than a yaw rate threshold value, and an autonomous driving permission unit configured to permits an autonomous driving of the autonomous driving vehicle when both the first reference straight steering angle and the second reference straight steering angle are acquired.
