Abstract
A driving control device uses a recognition reliability, and more specifically, uses an inter-vehicle distance, a radius of curvature of a road, and a gradient of the road, to determine detection precision with respect to a leading vehicle. Lane markings are set as restriction positions in cases in which the recognition reliability for the leading vehicle is greater than or equal to a reference. Positions closer to the vehicle than the lane markings are set as the restriction positions in cases in which the recognition reliability for the leading vehicle is lower than the reference.

10. A driving control device comprising:
-
an imaging device that captures an image of surroundings of an own vehicle; a leading vehicle recognition ECU that recognizes a leading vehicle from the image captured by the imaging device; a lateral direction movement restriction ECU that, based on the image captured by the imaging device, sets a restriction position for a movement range of the own vehicle in a lateral direction of the own vehicle; and the lateral direction movement restriction ECU setting the restriction position at a predetermined specific position in cases in which a recognition reliability of the leading vehicle by the leading vehicle recognition ECU is greater than or equal to a reference reliability, and setting the restriction position at a position closer to the own vehicle than the specific position in cases in which the recognition reliability is lower than the reference reliability.

11. A driving control method comprising steps of:
-
capturing an image of surroundings of an own vehicle by an imaging device; recognizing, by a computer, a leading vehicle from the captured image; based on the captured image, setting, by the computer, a restriction position for a movement range of the own vehicle in a lateral direction of the own vehicle by setting the restriction position at a predetermined specific position in cases in which a recognition reliability of the leading vehicle by the recognizing step is greater than or equal to a reference reliability, and setting the restriction position at a position closer to the own vehicle than the specific position in cases in which the recognition reliability is lower than the reference reliability.
