Abstract:
    The present invention provides a route guidance system and a route guidance method for making a driver recognize a right turn intersection. The route guidance system includes a current position detecting section, route searching processing device for searching for a route, and guidance processing device for setting a route guidance point at a predetermined point in front of a guidance target point and performing a route guidance for the guidance target point when an own vehicle arrives at the route guidance point. The guidance processing device includes guidance target point specifying condition determining processing device for determining whether a guidance target point specifying condition to easily specify the guidance target point is met on the basis of the presence or absence of traffic lights at each of intersections between the route guidance point and the guidance target point while the route guidance is performed. When the guidance target point specifying condition is met, the guidance processing device performs the route guidance whose content is preset corresponding to the guidance target point specifying condition.
