Driving support apparatus
First Claim
1. A driving support apparatus, which supports a driving operation of a vehicle by an operator by capturing a view around the vehicle and by displaying the captured view on at least a displaying means provided inside a cabin of the vehicle, comprising:
- a target spot setting means for setting a target spot that is a position to which the operator attempts to direct the vehicle;
a distance measuring means for measuring a distance between the vehicle and the target spot;
a speed measuring means for measuring a traveling speed of the vehicle; and
a speed controlling means for controlling the traveling speed of the vehicle so as not to exceed a speed predetermined in accordance with the distance between the vehicle and the target spot;
wherein operation of an accelerator by the operator during driving support execution does not cause the traveling speed to exceed the predetermined speed.
