Abstract
A vehicle surroundings display device is provided. The vehicle surroundings display device includes an imaging device, a display device, and a display controller. The imaging device images a region toward a rear side of a vehicle and sideways from the vehicle. The display device is capable of displaying an image captured by the imaging device. The display controller displays a first predetermined area of the image as a first display image on the display device in cases in which a direction indicator of the vehicle is in an inactive state, displays a second predetermined area of the image corresponding to an activated side of the direction indicator as a second display image on the display device in cases in which the direction indicator has transitioned from an inactive state to an active state, the second predetermined area being wider than the first predetermined area and including the first predetermined area, and switches a display on the display device from the second display image to the first display image after a predetermined standby duration has elapsed when the direction indicator has transitioned from an active state to an inactive state.
