A driving control apparatus for a vehicle provided with an automated operation device for executing automated driving by remote monitoring and control, having: a risk mitigation function that executes risk mitigation control for stopping the vehicle at a target stopping location in a case of communication fault with a remote-control base station for remote monitoring and control; and an override function that stops automated driving by the automated operation device and switches to a manual driving mode in response to a control intervention by an occupant or passenger of the vehicle, characterized in that the automated operation device is configured: to execute a search for a plurality of target stopping location candidates on the basis of location information about the vehicle and map information during the automated driving in preparation for RMF activation; and in a case in which a target stopping location candidate located on a path different from a target path of automated driving is selected, as the target stopping location, from among the plurality of target stopping location candidates when the RMF is activated in the vicinity of an intersection, to change an override threshold value serving as a determination reference for the control intervention by the occupant or passenger to activate the override function to a larger value than an override threshold value when the RMF is inactive. a risk mitigation function that executes risk mitigation control for stopping the vehicle at a target stopping location in a case of communication fault with a remote-control base station for remote monitoring and control; and an override function that stops automated driving by the automated operation device and switches to a manual driving mode in response to a control intervention by an occupant or passenger of the vehicle, characterized in that the automated operation device is configured: to execute a search for a plurality of target stopping location candidates on the basis of location information about the vehicle and map information during the automated driving in preparation for RMF activation; and in a case in which a target stopping location candidate located on a path different from a target path of automated driving is selected, as the target stopping location, from among the plurality of target stopping location candidates when the RMF is activated in the vicinity of an intersection, to change an override threshold value serving as a determination reference for the control intervention by the occupant or passenger to activate the override function to a larger value than an override threshold value when the RMF is inactive. to execute a search for a plurality of target stopping location candidates on the basis of location information about the vehicle and map information during the automated driving in preparation for RMF activation; and in a case in which a target stopping location candidate located on a path different from a target path of automated driving is selected, as the target stopping location, from among the plurality of target stopping location candidates when the RMF is activated in the vicinity of an intersection, to change an override threshold value serving as a determination reference for the control intervention by the occupant or passenger to activate the override function to a larger value than an override threshold value when the RMF is inactive.
