A merge support system includes a first detection unit and a second
detection unit for detecting a position and a speed of an approaching
vehicle in a traffic on a main lane and a position and a speed of a
subject vehicle, an information provision unit for providing information
for a driver of the subject vehicle and a control unit for calculating a
merge speed of the subject vehicle relative to the traffic on the main
lane and a merge position relative to the traffic on the main lane. The
control unit calculates the merge speed and the merge position on the
main lane based on the position and the speed of the approaching vehicle
and the subject vehicle, and the control unit controls the information
provision unit for providing a calculation result of the merge speed and
the merge position for the driver of the subject vehicle.
