Abstract:
A travel control method includes estimating the position of a subject vehicle on the basis of a detection result of a first detector, detecting a lane in which the subject vehicle travels, on the basis of a detection result of a second detector, determining that whether the position of the subject vehicle based on the positional information is included in the lane and outputting the determination as a first determination result, and determining that whether the position of the subject vehicle estimated on the basis of the detection result of the first detector is included in the lane and outputting the determination as a second determination result, and a step of performing a position estimation process of estimating the position of the subject vehicle on the basis of the detection result of the first detector when the first determination result and the second determination result are not identical.

Claim (Index 4):
The travel control method according to  claim 1 , comprising:\n detecting a boundary line of the lane in which the subject vehicle travel, on the basis of the detection result of the second detector; determining that the position of the subject vehicle based on the positional information is not included in the lane when the position of the subject vehicle based on the positional information gets across the boundary line of the lane; and determining that the position of the subject vehicle estimated on the basis of the detection result of the first detector is not included in the lane when the position of the subject vehicle estimated on the basis of the detection result of the first detector gets across the boundary line of the lane.
