To appropriately support traveling by adequately grasping a road situation in the progress direction of an own vehicle.
A road shape recognizing part 26 recognizes a road shape in the progress direction of the own vehicle, based on map data which is stored in a map data storage part 14 and the detection result of an external environment monitor device 11. A road situation estimating part 27 estimates the road situation of a road where the own vehicle is scheduled to travel, based on traveling information and a road state, which are extracted by an object traveling information extracting part 21, and on a traveling locus which is calculated by an object traveling locus calculating part 22 with respect to another vehicle which travels in the road shape recognized by the road shape recognizing part 26. A traveling information comparing part 30 compares the road situation which is estimated by the road situation estimating part 27 with a proper passable vehicle state (proper velocity VS) and the traveling state of the own vehicle (current velocity VP). A traveling support determining part 31 operates a controller 16 and an alarm device 17, so as to allow the traveling state of the own vehicle to be the proper vehicle state.
