Abstract
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 negotiation area information receiving unit 9 receives, from another vehicle, information on one or more negotiation areas each of which is an area other than the non-traveling area and is a subject of negotiation to be included in the non-traveling area. The permissible area determining unit 35 calculates, for each negotiation area, the first value which is the value of the negotiation area indicated by the information for the self-driving vehicle 10, and determines one negotiation area permissible to be included in the non-traveling area, or determines not to include any negotiation area in the non-traveling area.
