Abstract
A path prediction device comprises a storage unit that generates and stores, based on information collected from a plurality of vehicles including a first vehicle, traveling path information indicating information associated with paths where the respective vehicles have traveled; a positional information acquisition unit that acquires a first position indicating the current position of the first vehicle; and a path prediction unit that predicts the traveling path of the first vehicle using at least one of first path information indicating paths of the first vehicle and second path information indicating paths of second vehicles among the traveling path information, wherein the path prediction unit determines a use ratio of the first path information, which is used to predict the traveling path, based on a past traveling record of the first vehicle at the first position.
