Abstract

See full text

A control device included in each vehicle composing a vehicle group predicts a vehicle state of a subject vehicle before a traveling regulation point based on speed information of the subject vehicle, light color information of a traffic signal, and distance information between the subject vehicle and an entrance of the traveling regulation point. Based on the vehicle state, it is determined whether a vehicle of which the vehicle state corresponds to an unenterable state is included in the vehicle group. The unenterable state indicates a state where the subject vehicle cannot enter the traveling regulation point before the traffic signal is changed to the yellow light when its speed is maintained at a current speed. When it is determined that the vehicle in the unenterable state is included in the vehicle group, the subject vehicle is controlled such that it does not enter the traveling regulation point.
