ABSTRACT:
A vehicle driving condition prediction device, a warning device using this prediction device, and a recording medium for storing data for prediction, wherein during use of the prediction function of an approach speed of the vehicle to a curve ahead, the acceleration at the present moment is maintained for a condition maintaining period of time, and thereafter the vehicle speed is slowed down at a fixed deceleration, and using such an assumed deceleration pattern a vehicle speed in future is predicted, by which a warning can be given taking the chances of driver's deceleration into consideration, and wherein by storing data on road cants in a data base, and using cant data, it is possible to predict the lateral acceleration more accurately.
