ABSTRACT:
In order to fit a driver's driving feeling, a vehicle speed control system includes a unit that calculates the instantaneous curvature and a unit that controls vehicle speed. The system reduces the vehicle speed when the instantaneous curvature tends to increase, and enhances it when the instantaneous curvature tends to decrease.
