Abstract

A method of controlling driving of a vehicle may include determining whether a vehicle speed exceeds a predetermined speed, determining whether a signal of an accelerator position sensor (APS) is input as a signal of an accelerator pedal, determining whether a signal of a brake position sensor (BPS) is input as a signal of a brake pedal, determining whether the signal of the BPS is input while overlapping the signal of the APS for over a predetermined time in a state where the signal of the APS is being input, determining whether the signal of the APS is input while overlapping the signal of the BPS for over a predetermined time in a state where the signal of the BPS is first being input, driving an engine in a first smart pedal control mode, and executing a second smart pedal control mode.
