Abstract
The present invention relates to a staggering alarm device and a staggering alarm control method that can realize more effective alarm output. The staggering alarm device comprises: a staggering traveling detection unit which detects the staggering traveling of a vehicle; a waiting time setting unit which sets a waiting time on the basis of the driving proficiency of the driver of the vehicle; and an alarm output control unit which outputs an alarm from an alarm output unit, when the waiting time has elapsed after the detection of the staggering traveling.
Claims2
A sway warning apparatus, comprising:
- a sway traveling detection section that detects sway traveling of a vehicle;
- a waiting time setting section that sets a waiting time to be shorter as driving proficiency of a driver of the vehicle is higher, the waiting time being a period of time from detection of the sway traveling to warning output;
- and
- a warning output control section that causes a warning output section to output a warning when the waiting time has elapsed since detection of the sway traveling,
- a proficiency determination section that determines the proficiency to be lower as a number of a plurality of the detections of the sway traveling is greater in a predetermined period.
A sway warning control method, comprising:
- detecting, by an apparatus mounted on a vehicle, sway traveling of the vehicle;
- setting, by the apparatus mounted on the vehicle, a waiting time to be shorter as driving proficiency of a driver of the vehicle is higher, the waiting time being a period of time from detection of the sway traveling to warning output;
- and
- causing, by the apparatus mounted on the vehicle, a warning output section to output a warning when the waiting time has elapsed since detection of the sway traveling,
- wherein the proficiency is determined to be lower as a number of a plurality of the detections of the sway traveling is greater in a predetermined period.
