Abstract

A surroundings recognition unit recognizes the road environment and traffic participants around the host vehicle. A condition satisfaction determination unit determines whether or not first to fifth conditions are satisfied, on the basis of recognition results from the surroundings recognition unit. When causing the host vehicle to travel in a lane of a traveling road adjacent to the edge of the traveling road, a control unit changes travel control content and/or notification control content relating to automated driving, depending on whether or not the first to fifth conditions are satisfied.
