First Claim
1. A vehicle specifying apparatus comprising:
- an obtaining device configured to obtain, by communication, first behavior information associated with one or a plurality of communication vehicles which drive around a self-vehicle and which can communicate with the self-vehicle; and
a detecting device configured to detect second behavior information associated with another vehicle that drives around the self-vehicle, said vehicle specifying apparatus configured to compare the obtained first behavior information with the detected second behavior information, thereby specifying a preceding vehicle of the self-vehicle,said vehicle specifying apparatus further comprising;
a determining device configured to determine whether or not a particular vehicle, which is a vehicle specified as the preceding vehicle, is set as a preceding vehicle candidate, according to whether or not detection of the particular vehicle by the detecting device is stopped when the particular vehicle is detected by the detecting device.

Abstract
A vehicle specifying apparatus (100) is provided with: an obtaining device (1) configured to obtain, by communication, first behavior information associated with one or a plurality of communication vehicles which drive around a self-vehicle and which can communicate with the self-vehicle; and a detecting device configured to detect second behavior information associated with other vehicles which drive around the self-vehicle. The vehicle specifying apparatus is configured to compare the obtained first behavior information with the detected second behavior information, thereby specifying a preceding vehicle of the self-vehicle. The vehicle specifying apparatus is further provided with: a determining device configured to determine whether or not a particular vehicle, which is a vehicle specified as the preceding vehicle, is set as a preceding vehicle candidate, according to whether or not detection of the particular vehicle by the detecting device is stopped when the particular vehicle is detected by the detecting device.
