Abstract
A vehicle communication control device used for a vehicle includes a nearby vehicle information acquirer, a subject vehicle information generator, an assistance information generator, a difference calculator, and a cycle changer. The nearby vehicle information acquirer successively acquires nearby vehicle information representing running condition of a nearby vehicle and generation time of the nearby vehicle information. The subject vehicle information generator cyclically generates subject vehicle information representing running condition of a subject vehicle. The assistance information generator generates assistance information for driving assistance of the subject vehicle by using the nearby vehicle information and the subject vehicle information. The difference calculator calculates a difference between generation time of the most recent subject vehicle information and generation time of the most recent nearby vehicle information. The cycle changer changes a generation cycle of the subject vehicle information so as to decrease the difference.
