VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD AND VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC B60Q1/40 

FIELD: transport engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method for controlling a vehicle to turn off blinking of a turn signal using a controller comprises the steps of: detecting whether the vehicle makes a first course change; detecting whether there is a road that allows a second course change that branches off from the road after the first course change from an image captured by the imaging device; turning off the turn signal when a road is detected that allows a second change of course. The vehicle control device includes a turn signal, a vehicle sensor that detects a change of course, an image forming unit that photographs an area in front of the vehicle, and a controller that turns off the turn signal based on the captured image.

EFFECT: ensuring the ability to turn off the turn signal after changing the vehicle's course on roads where the boundary line cannot be detected.
