Abstract:
A peripheral vehicle is detected from an image captured by a camera, and the tire grounded portion of the peripheral vehicle is specified. Whether the color of a peripheral region of the specified tire grounded portion is white is determined. If the color is white, it is determined that the road condition of a traffic lane where the peripheral vehicle is traveling is snow.
