Abstract

At the time of automated driving, a plurality of vehicle running paths which show changes along with time of a speed and advancing direction of the vehicle are generated based on the information on the surroundings of the vehicle which is detected by an external sensor. At the time of a manual driving mode, the running paths of the vehicle at the different driving scenes are stored as specific vehicle running paths which show the driving characteristics of the driver. At the time of automated driving, when the driving scene becomes a driving scene for which the specific vehicle running path is stored, a vehicle running path close to the stored specific vehicle running path is selected from among the plurality of generated vehicle running paths, and the vehicle is automatically driven along this selected vehicle running path.
