Abstract
An apparatus and method for recognizing a driving field of a vehicle are provided. The apparatus includes a sensor that is configured to sense a location of a vehicle driving on a road and sense whether an object is adjacent to the vehicle. In addition, a controller is configured to detect whether the object is present and a lane of the road on which the vehicle is being driven is changed to detect a final lane candidate group on which the vehicle is positioned. The final lane candidate group is then displayed by the controller.
