VEHICLE DRIVING ASSIST DEVICE
A vehicle driving assist device comprises a risk determination region setting unit configured to set a risk determination region for calculating a risk degree that decreases as a distance outward from a center of the oncoming moving body in a width direction of the oncoming moving body increases. The risk determination region setting unit is further configured to set the risk determination region such that the risk degree is zero at a distance in a vehicle width direction between the vehicle and the oncoming moving body matching an average distance. The average distance is calculated based on distances in the vehicle width direction between the vehicle and oncoming moving bodies acquired every time the vehicle passes by the oncoming moving bodies.

VEHICLE MOTION CONTROL DEVICE AND VEHICLE MOTION CONTROL METHOD
An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle motion control device that generates a travel path capable of realizing comfortable ride comfort and high safety with a small physical quantity related to a vehicle behavior such as a longitudinal acceleration, a lateral acceleration, and a vertical acceleration generated when a vehicle passes or avoids with respect to a predetermined region such as unevenness on a course of a vehicle. Therefore, the vehicle motion control device includes a vehicle behavior prediction portion that predicts a physical quantity related to a vehicle behavior that occurs when a vehicle maintains a reference route toward a predetermined region on a course and a physical quantity related to a vehicle behavior that occurs when the vehicle shifts to an avoidance route for avoiding the predetermined region, and a path generation portion that generates a travel path defined by the reference route or the avoidance route in which the physical quantity is smaller than a defined value.
