More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to a vehicle control apparatus comprising a mode selecting switch for setting a safe driving control mode; a front sensor for detecting a distance with an object in the front of a vehicle; a yaw rate/lateral acceleration sensor for detecting the yaw rate and lateral acceleration of the vehicle; a wheel speed sensor for detecting the speed of multiple wheels mounted on the vehicle; and a control part for controlling the close state of a throttle valve to be maintained, and the brake operation of a brake device to be performed at the same time by determining the misoperation of the accelerator pedal based on detecting information acquired through the front sensor, the yaw rate/lateral acceleration sensor, and the wheel speed sensor when a safe driving control mode selecting signal is inputted from the mode selecting switch. Therefore, an automobile accident caused by the misoperation of an accelerator pedal can be effectively prevented.
