Abstract

The planned route creating unit 3 creates a planned route of the self-driving vehicle 10. The non-traveling area plan creating unit 4 creates a plan of the non-traveling area, which is an area where the self-driving vehicle 10 can travel and which is an area set as an area where the self-driving vehicle 10 does not travel. The non-traveling area plan creating unit 4 creates a plan of the non-traveling area at a frequency lower than the frequency at which the planned route creating unit 3 creates a planned route. The transmission unit 6 transmits the plan of the non-traveling area to the other vehicle each time the plan of the non-traveling area is created.
