DRIVE ASSIST APPARATUS

A drive assist apparatus configured to set a drive condition of a vehicle based on a risk map generated by giving a risk potential to a risk object that is present around the vehicle, includes one or more processors and one or more memories connected to the one or more processors to be able to communicate with the one or more processors. The one or more processors is configured to execute a process including: obtaining information on a surrounding environment of the vehicle; obtaining information on an external environmental factor that may cause deviation of a drive track of the vehicle; and expanding a setting range of the risk potential of the risk object which is positioned in a direction of the expected deviation based on the information on the external environmental factor.
