Zusammenfassung:A vehicle control apparatus includes an actuator used for traveling, an output device outputting information, and a microprocessor and a memory coupled to the microprocessor. The microprocessor performs capturing an image ahead of the vehicle, recognizing a traffic sign included in an imaging range of the captured image, controlling at least one of the output device and the actuator based on information of the recognized traffic sign, and determining whether the vehicle is traveling in a restricted section in which a predetermined travel restriction including at least one of a vehicle speed limit and overtaking limit is imposed temporarily. The microprocessor performs the controlling including controlling, when it is determined that the vehicle is traveling in the restricted section, at least one of the output device and the actuator without using the information of the traffic sign even if the traffic sign is recognized.
