Abstract
A driving support device for a vehicle includes a separation line recognizer configured to recognize pairs of right and left separation lines ahead of the vehicle on vehicle's traveling roads, a target route setting unit configured to set a target route along center lines of lanes defined with respective centers of each of the pairs of the separation lines, a steering controller configured to perform steering control for driving the vehicle along the target route, and a target route corrector configured to correct the target route when an intersecting road is on the target route and an angle between a center line of the vehicle's current traveling road before the intersecting road and a center line on the intersecting road is a set angle or less, set a route correction section, calculate a arc tangent to the two center lines, and correct the target route based on the calculated arc.
