This invention provides an on-vehicle electronic apparatus, which has a wireless
communication unit which makes a wireless communication via a wireless LAN, means
for acquiring position information and velocity information of vehicles before
and after the self vehicle using the wireless communication unit, means for calculating
the inter-vehicle distances between the self vehicle, and the vehicles before and
after the self vehicle with reference to map information on the basis of the acquired
position information and velocity information, and means for, when the calculated
inter-vehicle distances are equal to or smaller than a predetermined distance and
the velocities of the self vehicle and the vehicles before and after the self vehicle
are equal to or higher than a predetermined velocity, taking a collision avoidance measure.
