Field: Transport (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC B | IPC B

Claim 2:
3. A computer-readable non-transitory storage medium that stores a computer program for vehicle control, which causes a processor to:
determine a level of active operation by a driver based on a line-of sight of the driver's eyes, an eye opening degree of the driver, a mouth opening degree of the driver, a steering wheel touch sensor signal and a steering wheel torque sensor signal;
determine a relationship between a speed of the vehicle and a predetermined reference speed; and,
generate a first driving plan whereby a first deceleration is used to decelerate the vehicle without activating a brake light when it has been determined that the level of active operation by the driver is lower than a predetermined reference level and the speed of the vehicle is faster than the reference speed, and generate a second driving plan whereby a second deceleration that is greater than the first deceleration is used to decelerate the vehicle, and activating the brake light, when it has been determined that the level of active operation by the driver is lower than the predetermined reference level and the speed of the vehicle is equal to or below the reference speed;, wherein:
the processor is also configured to control operation of the vehicle based on the first driving plan while the vehicle speed is above the reference speed and based on the second driving plan while the vehicle speed is equal to or below the reference speed.
