1. A driving support server for supporting a traveling of a vehicle to enter a parking space of a parking lot or to move out from the parking space, the driving support server comprising:
a path setting unit configured to set a first traveling path, in which the vehicle travels, in the parking lot;
a detecting unit configured to detect a person by performing processing on a measurement result of one or more sensors provided in the parking lot; and
a determining unit configured to determine whether or not a person is present for a predetermined time or more in a part of the first traveling path, based on a detection result of the detecting unit,
wherein the path setting unit searches for a second traveling path that is a path bypassing the part of the first traveling path when it is determined that a person is present in the part of the first traveling path for the predetermined time or more, and
the detecting unit limits the processing for the measurement result of the sensor, whose measurement target is the part of the first traveling path, after the second traveling path is searched.
