To provide a travel controller which can perform correct travel propriety determination in a case where travel propriety determination may be difficult depending on a controller.SOLUTION: A CPU suspends travel to temporarily stop a vehicle when a condition in which travel with automatic driving is possible is not satisfied in such a case where there is an obstacle on the front side in the travel direction of an own vehicle. The CPU operates a head-up display to display a marking MK that surrounds an object being a cause of non-satisfaction of the travel possible condition when a prescribed time elapses after the temporary stop. The CPU monitors the sight line input of a driver, determines that the driver have no intention of traveling when the sight line is oriented to the marking MK, but determines that the travel is possible and starts the vehicle when the sight line is oriented to a traffic lane on which travel is possible.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】制御装置によっては走行の可否判定が困難であるときに、的確な走行の可否判定をすることができるようにした走行制御装置を提供する。【解決手段】ＣＰＵは、自車両の走行方向前方に障害物がある場合など、自動運転による走行可能な条件が満たされなくなる場合、走行を中断し車両を一時停止する。ＣＰＵは、一時停止後、所定時間が経過すると、ヘッドアップディスプレイを操作して、走行可能条件を満たさなくなった要因となる物体を囲むマーキングＭＫを表示する。ＣＰＵは、運転者の視線入力を監視し、視線がマーキングＭＫに向けられている場合には、走行の意思がないと判定する一方、視線が走行可能な車線に向けられる場合には、走行が可能と判定し、車両を発進させる。【選択図】図６
