A system and a method for controlling an operation of an autonomous vehicle are provided, in which information regarding front vehicles and surrounding traffic information is received in the autonomous vehicle. A traffic flow of the front vehicles and a time when a traffic light color is changed are estimated through the input information and a maximum vehicle velocity at which the autonomous vehicle is capable of crossing the traffic light is calculated while securing a safety distance from the front vehicle by regenerative braking force to generate an acceleration/deceleration control signal for adjusting a driving velocity. Braking is performed by distributing regenerative braking force and friction braking force of the driving vehicle according to the acceleration/deceleration control signal.

A driving support system detects a deceleration object ahead and starts deceleration assistance for a host vehicle. The driving support system includes a reliability calculation unit configured to calculate a reliability of detection of the deceleration object, an assistance mode selection unit configured to select an assistance mode of the deceleration assistance from among multiple assistance modes in accordance with the calculated reliability of detection, and a driving support unit configured to perform the deceleration assistance in the selected assistance mode. The assistance mode selection unit is configured to select a first assistance mode when the reliability of detection is lower than a predetermined reliability threshold and select a second assistance mode higher in a level of the deceleration assistance than the first assistance mode when the reliability of detection is higher than or equal to the reliability threshold.

A driving assistance system for a vehicle, comprising: a detection unit configured to detect information regarding surroundings of the vehicle; and a control unit configured to perform driving assistance control based on information detected by the detection unit, wherein, when the control unit performs an operation of stopping movement due to an object detected by the detection unit during the driving assistance control, the control unit restarts the movement after a predetermined time elapses from when the stop operation is started.

A vehicle control system includes a direction detector configured to detect a direction of a face or line of sight of an occupant of a host vehicle; an automated driving controller configured to execute automated driving; and a switching controller configured to switch an automated driving mode executed by the automated driving controller to any one of a plurality of automated driving modes including a first automated driving mode in which a predetermined task is required of the occupant or a predetermined automation rate is set and a second automated driving mode in which a level of the task required of the occupant is lower than in the first automated driving mode or an automation rate is lower than in the first automated driving mode, wherein the switching controller includes the direction detected by the direction detector being a predetermined direction in switching conditions for switching from the second automated driving mode to the first automated driving mode.

Even in the case that a learning flag and an ACC permission flag are not set, if a power switch is in an ON state, a travel control of a second control state, which is capable of being executed in a setting in which an inter-vehicle distance setting is a short setting or a host vehicle velocity setting is a low setting, is carried out.
