VEHICLE DECELERATION ASSISTANCE APPARATUS

A vehicle deceleration assistance apparatus proposes a decrease of an assistance level by a deceleration assistance control to an operator or autonomously decreases the assistance level when a weak acceleration or deceleration operation is carried out a predetermined weak acceleration or deceleration operation number of times or more. The weak acceleration operation is an acceleration operation satisfying a predetermined acceleration operation condition that the acceleration operation having an acceleration operation degree equal to or smaller than a predetermined acceleration operation degree, continues being carried out for a predetermined acceleration operation period of time. The weak deceleration operation is a deceleration operation satisfying a predetermined deceleration operation condition that the deceleration operation having a deceleration operation degree equal to or smaller than a predetermined deceleration operation degree, continues being carried out for a predetermined deceleration operation period of time.
