A control device for a vehicle including a right lamp unit and a left lamp unit includes a flashing control unit configured to control flashing of the right lamp unit and the left lamp unit, and a behavior control unit configured to execute at least a deceleration process for decelerating the vehicle in a traveling lane and a course change process for causing the vehicle to enter an adjacent lane or a road shoulder from the traveling lane when a driver of the vehicle is in a state that is inappropriate to continue driving. The flashing control unit is configured to flash the right lamp unit and the left lamp unit in the same pattern when the behavior control unit executes the deceleration process, and to flash the right lamp unit and the left lamp unit in different patterns when the behavior control unit executes the course change process.

A cancellation device for an automotive feature on a vehicle includes a lever configured to be manually moved relative to the vehicle from a first, neutral position to a second, non-neutral position to actuate the automotive feature. The cancellation device also includes a detent pawl coupled to the lever such that the detent pawl moves with the lever, a detent spring configured to bias the detent pawl, a centering spring configured to bias the lever back to the first, neutral position, and a magnet configured to generate a force to hold the lever in the second, non-neutral position.

An energy system for a vehicle system having a plurality of motors that may include a first power supply assembly that may also include a first battery assembly of a plurality of battery assemblies. The first power supply assembly also may include a first bus coupled to a first motor of the plurality of motors and coupled to the first battery assembly. A second power supply assembly may also be provided that includes a second battery assembly of the plurality of battery assemblies coupled to a second bus that is coupled to a second motor of the plurality of motors. A controller may also be provided that may be configured to vary conduction of electric current from the first battery assembly to the first motor by the first bus based on an operating condition of the second power supply assembly to provide a first input to the first motor that may be different than a second input provided to the second motor by the second battery assembly.

A lever switch for a vehicle capable of grasping a content of a function that a driver is demonstrating without causing any troubles in driving. A swingable lever switch for a vehicle mounted on a steering column has a video display formed along a horizontal direction of the vehicle, in which the video display displays a function assigned to an operation of the lever switch for a vehicle, for example, lighting of a turn signal by moving a light spot on the video display from left to right or right to left vice versa.
