Vehicle speed regulation incorporating driver wishes under cornering
A method is intended to regulate the speed of an at least partially self-driving vehicle, knowing the radius of curvature of a future position it is preparing to take on a course along which it is travelling. This method comprises a step (10-90) in which the speed is regulated as a function of a speed set point and, if a radius of curvature of the future position which is representative of a curve is detected, a phase of deceleration down to a chosen speed followed by a phase of acceleration until the speed setpoint is obtained are imposed on the vehicle. In this step (10-90), when the driver imposes acceleration on his vehicle during the deceleration phase, this deceleration phase is halted and then another phase of acceleration until the speed set point is obtained is imposed on the vehicle.
Vehicle control device, vehicle control method, and storage medium
A vehicle control device (100) includes a recognizer (130) that recognizes a situation occurring near an own-vehicle, and a driving controller (140, 160) that controls acceleration/deceleration and steering of the own-vehicle on the basis of a result of the recognition of the recognizer. When performing travel control according to a behavior of a preceding vehicle that is traveling in front of the own-vehicle such that the own-vehicle follows the preceding vehicle to pass through an intersection, the driving controller does not perform following of the preceding vehicle if a turning start point of the preceding vehicle does not match a turning start point in a route predicted for the own-vehicle to pass through the intersection in a scheduled direction or if a turning angle of the preceding vehicle does not match a turning angle in the predicted route.
