For example, when the driving force generator 231 is configured as an actuator, the transparent flexible display 211 may adjust the length of the light blocking area or the image display area according to the driving force generated by the actuator.

On the other hand, the driving unit 230 may transmit a driving force to the transparent flexible display 211 so that the transparent flexible display 211 is wound around the light blocking area or the image display area. For example, when the driving force generation unit 231 included in the driving unit 230 is configured as a motor, the driving unit 230 may provide a rotational force of the motor to draw in or draw out the light blocking area or the image display area. In this case, the area of the transparent flexible display 211 except for the light blocking area or the image display area may be wound or unwound based on the rotation force. The vehicle driving assistance apparatus 100 may further include a stopper. Here, the stopper limits the winding of the transparent flexible display 211.
