ABSTRACT:
When a vehicle travels along a curve of a road, a target vehicle acceleration/deceleration that is used for accelerating/decelerating the vehicle to a target vehicle speed, which is set for the curve, is calculated. Based on a comparison between a present vehicle speed of the vehicle and the target vehicle speed, the vehicle is controlled such that an acceleration/deceleration of the vehicle coincides with the target vehicle acceleration/deceleration.
