PURPOSE:To enable follow-up driving with keeping a safe distance all the time from a preceding car decided by a driver by constituting so that the preceding car to be followed is designated in an image follow-up window and followed in image, a distance between two cars is detected and speed is regulated so that the distance is kept at a predetermined safe distance. CONSTITUTION:In driving a vehicle, when an image 5a of a preceding car 5 that is desired to be followed enters, for example, an image of an image sensor 4 on the right hand side and is displayed on a display device 11, a driver operates a window forming device 12 so as to set an image follow-up window 21 surrounding the preceding car image 5a and operates an image follow-up instruction switch 13, and then, an image follow-up action for the preceding car image 5a is automatically carried out by the window 21. Also, a micro computer 10 reads out a picture element signal in the window 21 from a memory 9 to make it a base image signal for calculating a distance between two cars and continuously detects the distance between the preceding car 5 and its own car, and when a follow-up driving switch 16 is operated, an opening degree of a throttle valve 18 is adjusted based on a safe distance between the two cars by a speed regulating device 17 so as to drive its own car following the preceding car 5.
