Abstract
A drive control apparatus (100) uses a calculating unit (103) to calculate a danger index indicative of the possibility of occurrence of a dangerous event for a mobile body based on information of the mobile body acquired by an information acquiring unit (101). A notifying unit (104) notifies a passenger of the possibility of occurrence of a dangerous event for the mobile body. A control unit (106) controls a driving unit (102) to stop the drive if a determining unit (105) determines that the danger index is greater than a predetermined value.
