ABSTRACT:
A collision avoidance judging section is provided which, based on a relative connection between own vehicle and preceding vehicle, carries out a judgment as to whether or not a possible collision is avoidable by operating at least one of a steering wheel and a brake pedal, and a collision avoidance estimating section is provided which, based on the relative connection, carries out an estimation as to whether or not, after expiration of a predetermined time from the time of detection of the relative connection, a possible collision is avoidable by operating at least one of the steering wheel and brake pedal. When the collision avoidance estimating section estimates that the possible collision is unavoidable, a lower braking force is produced, and when the collision avoidance judging section judges that the possible collision is unavoidable, a higher braking force is produced.
