Abstract

An electronic control unit of a vehicle recognizes a shift position based on a user's shift operation and controls a drive device based on the shift position, and an accelerator operation, a brake operation, and a steering operation by the user. When a predetermined abnormality that the shift position is not able to be recognized has occurred, the electronic control unit sets an abnormality-time shift position based on vehicle surroundings information and controls the drive device based on the abnormality-time shift position, the brake operation, and the steering operation.
