Abstract:
A travel control method estimates a position of a moving object around a subject vehicle using a detector configured to detect the moving object. This method includes detecting a direction of travel in a lane from map information. The lane is located on a road on which the moving object travels. When the subject vehicle is changing directions, the position of the moving object is estimated on the basis of the direction of travel in the lane.

Claim (Index 14):
A travel control apparatus comprising:\n a detector configured to detect a moving object around a subject vehicle; and a controller configured to determine a position of the moving object, the controller being further configured to:\n detect a direction of travel in a lane from map information, the lane being located on a road on which the moving object travels; \n determine whether or not the subject vehicle is changing directions; and \n when the subject vehicle is changing directions, correct the position of the moving object detected by the detector, on a basis of the direction of travel in the lane detected from the map information, \n wherein when the subject vehicle is not changing directions, the position of the moving object detected by the detector is not corrected on the basis of the direction of travel in the lane detected from the map information.
