Original Abstract Submitted
The vehicle traveling assistance device proposes a change of the set vehicle speed based on the traveling environment of the own vehicle during execution of the constant speed traveling control for autonomously controlling the traveling of the own vehicle so that the travel speed of the own vehicle is maintained at the set vehicle speed. The vehicle traveling assistance device determines whether or not to make a proposal based on whether or not the set vehicle speed after the change is equal to or higher than a predetermined vehicle speed threshold. The predetermined vehicle speed threshold is set by an operator of the own vehicle.
