ABSTRACT:
A parallel traveling control system detects distances to a guide rail provided on a road surface of a traveling lane or set close thereto, and drives the brake pressures in such a direction that the distances between the vehicle and the guide rail coincide with set values. Additionally, the system detects the rotation of the steering wheel, designates automatic parallel traveling in which the brake pressures are driven to correct the vehicle's direction, and terminates automatic parallel traveling when the steering wheel is rotated more than a predetermined angle.
