Abstract
A vehicle driving support system capable of supporting driving of a vehicle that travels on a road includes a notifier, and an acquirer. In a case where there is a first vehicle that moves between lanes, the notifier is configured to, provide notification of presence of the first vehicle to a second vehicle travelling in a target lane into which the first vehicle is to move. The acquirer is configured to acquire a size of a merging space that is to be provided by the second vehicle for merging of the first vehicle. In a case where the first vehicle is travelling under autonomous operation or assisted operation, the acquirer is configured to acquire the size of the merging space such that the size of the merging space is longer than when acquired in a case where the first vehicle is travelling under manual operation.
