Claim Text:
1. A lane outward deviation avoidance assist apparatus comprising: a recognition device configured to recognize a travel lane of a vehicle; a deviation recognition part configured to recognize a deviation from the travel lane recognized by the recognition device or a deviation prediction from the travel lane; a control part configured to perform a deviation avoidance control for avoiding the deviation from the travel lane at least by a steering; a deviation number count part configured to count a number of deviations from the travel lane recognized by the deviation recognition part within a predetermined duration or a number of deviation predictions from the travel lane, and a speech output part configured to output a speech in an alarm output control when a speech alarm is activated, wherein: the control part is configured to perform at least one of the deviation avoidance control and the alarm output control when the number counted by the deviation number count part reaches n, n being a natural number more than 1; and when the speech alarm is activated, the control part, in the alarm output control, outputs, from the speech output part, a speech indicating that if the vehicle deviates from the travel lane one more time, the deviation avoidance control, for avoiding deviation from the travel lane, will not be performed.
