Air circulation passages connect an accommodation space of an electronic control unit to the outside to circulate air to buffer internal pressure fluctuations. The accommodation space side of the air circulation passages is formed as a divided air circulation passage with a plurality of passages, a cooling object member is arranged to come in thermal contact with air flowing through the divided air circulation passage, and the total cross-sectional area of the divided air circulation passage is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the air circulation passages that are not divided. Because the accommodation space of the electronic control unit is connected to the outside, internal pressure fluctuations can be buffered, and increasing the flow velocity of the air flowing through the divided air circulation passage on the accommodation space side of the air circulation passages allows heat inside the accommodation space to be efficiently radiated to the outside.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: perform a follow-up steering control for changing a steering angle of a vehicle in such a manner that the vehicle travels along a target traveling line determined based on a preceding vehicle trajectory, which is a travel trajectory of a preceding vehicle traveling ahead of the vehicle; and when a first distance condition and a manual steering condition are both satisfied while the follow-up steering control is being performed, stop the follow-up steering control, the first distance condition being a condition satisfied when a deviation distance in a road-width direction between the preceding vehicle trajectory and the vehicle is equal to or longer than a predetermined first threshold, and the manual steering condition being a condition satisfied when a driver operates a steering wheel to change a position in the road-width direction.
