Abstract
A vehicle control device of the present invention at least partially automatically performs drive control for a vehicle by self-drive and is provided with: a hazard lamp for notification around the vehicle; and a light emitting control unit which, when a predetermined condition is satisfied during self-drive, performs light emitting control causing the hazard lamp to emit light. The light emitting control unit, as well as causing the hazard lamp to emit light, performs light emitting control whereby a lighting member, different from the hazard, for notification around the vehicle is caused to emit light when the hazard lamp is not normal.
