VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS

A vehicle control apparatus includes a microprocessor and an exterior environment detection unit configured to detect an exterior environment situation in a predetermined region around the subject vehicle. The microprocessor is configured to perform: recognizing a division line defining a lane of a road on which the subject vehicle travels based on a detection value of the exterior environment detection unit; acquiring a movement amount of the subject vehicle in a vehicle width direction; and determining a reliability of a recognition result of the division line based on a first movement amount which is the acquired movement amount of the subject vehicle and a second movement amount, which is a change amount of a recognized position of the division line in the vehicle width direction, when a traveling position of the subject vehicle moves in the vehicle width direction.
