Abstract:
1. A vehicle controller for controlling a vehicle equipped with at least one of an internal combustion engine and a motor as a driving source, the vehicle controller comprising: an accelerator-operation detector configured to detect an accelerator operation; a brake-operation detector configured to detect a brake operation; an output controller configured to control an output of the driving source according to an accelerator operation amount detected by the accelerator-operation detector; a first output-reducing controller configured to perform a first output-reducing control in which an accelerator operation amount which will be transmitted into the output controller from the accelerator-operation detector is compulsorily reduced, when the accelerator-operation detector and the brake-operation detector simultaneously detect the accelerator operation and the brake operation; and a second output-reducing controller configured to perform a second output-reducing control in which an output of the driving source is compulsorily reduced, when it is determined that the output of the driving source is not reduced even though the first output-reducing control has been performed.
