PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle operation control system and a vehicle operation control method, capable of calculating a driving concentration level of a driver of a vehicle at high accuracy, and maintaining the driving concentration level of the driver to a certain level even in an automatic travel of the vehicle.SOLUTION: A vehicle operation control system performs control to detect a brain wave or a heat beat of a driver of a vehicle during an automatic travel of the vehicle, and calculate a concentration level index CI as an index indicating a driving concentration level of the driver in each preset control interval by using a plurality of indexes with a correlation relationship with drowsiness of the driver from the indexes related to the brain wave and the heart beat of the driver.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1【課題】車両の運転者の運転集中度を高精度で算出することができるとともに、車両の自動走行時でも運転者の運転集中度をある程度維持することができる車両の運転制御システム及び車両の運転制御方法を提供する。【解決手段】車両の自動走行中に、車両の運転者の脳波または心拍を検出し、この運転者の脳波または心拍に関連する指標の内、さらに、運転者の眠気と相関関係のある指標を複数用いて、運転者の運転集中度を表す指標である集中度指標ＣＩを予め設定した制御間隔毎に算出する制御を行う。【選択図】図１
