Claim 4:
5. A vehicle driving system comprising:
an interface control circuitry configured to:
determine, which one of a first signal from an automatic driving control circuitry that outputs a signal for automatically actuating a plurality of pieces of in-vehicle operational equipment that can be operated by a driver, and a second signal from a manual driving control circuitry that outputs a signal to the pieces of the in-vehicle operational equipment based on an operational input by the driver should be given priority, when receiving both the first and second signals;
determine which one of the automatic driving control circuitry and the manual driving control circuitry is in operation;
assign priority to the first signal;
when it is determined that the automatic driving control circuitry is in operation, directly output the first signal to the pieces of the in-vehicle operational equipment that can be operated by the driver and operate the in-vehicle operational equipment that has received the first signal, the first signal having been output by the automatic driving control circuitry based on the operational input to the pieces of the in-vehicle operational equipment by the driver; and
assign priority to the second signal;
when it is determined that the manual driving control circuitry is in operation, directly output the second signal to the pieces of the in-vehicle operational equipment that can be operated by the driver and operate the in-vehicle operational equipment that has received the second signal, the second signal having been output by the manual driving control circuitry based on the operational input to the pieces of the in-vehicle operational equipment by the driver.
