Abstract
A parking mode selection apparatus selects one parking mode among from plural parking modes including at least a perpendicular parking or a parallel parking. The parking mode selection apparatus includes a steer angle detector that detects a steer angle of a steering wheel, an operation detector that detects, based on the steer angle detected by the steer angle detector, a predetermined operation in which the steering wheel is returned to a neutral position after rotated to a right or a left, and a parking mode selector. The parking mode selector selects, when the predetermined operation is detected by the operation detector, a parking mode that coincides with a steered direction to the right or the left of the steer angle detected by the steer angle detector and is associated with said steer angle.
