Abstract:
A traveling control apparatus acquires a shape of a road on which an own vehicle is to travel, and, in the case where the shape of the road changes from a straight road to a curved road, the apparatus calculates an upper limit speed, which prevents the own vehicle from skidding off outside the curved road when the own vehicle travels on the curved road, as a target speed. The traveling control apparatus decelerates the own vehicle from a deceleration start position so that the own vehicle enters the curved road at a constant speed at a time point when the own vehicle enters the curved road. The traveling control apparatus sets the target speed after acceleration has finished when the own vehicle exits the curved road and reaches an acceleration start position, and accelerates the own vehicle from the acceleration start position to an acceleration completion position.

Claim (Index 6):
The traveling control apparatus according to  claim 1 , comprising:\n a vehicle speed setting unit configured to set the constant speed so that friction force acting on the own vehicle in a direction opposite to centrifugal force is larger than the centrifugal force acting on the own vehicle when the own vehicle travels on the curved road.
