Abstract
An autonomous driving control apparatus that achieves autonomous driving by controlling a driving operation of a subject vehicle, based on a situation around the subject vehicle is provided. The autonomous driving control apparatus includes: a driving operation determination part that determines a detail of the driving operation of the subject vehicle, based on the situation; a driving operation control part that controls the driving operation in accordance with the detail; and a driving information output part that shifts a footrest portion of a footrest at a seat on a driver seat side of the subject vehicle by driving a driving part provided on the footrest, to output the detail as driving information. The driving information output part varies a frontward inclination angle in accordance with a level of acceleration or deceleration of the subject vehicle, to output the driving information.
