Abstract
A parking assistance control device detects a parkable area, where a host vehicle can be parked, based on target information, causes the vehicle to move from the initial position, which is the vehicle's position when the parkable area is detected, to the parkable area by controlling a driving device, braking device, and steering device and, when the target information indicates that a stopper is installed in the parkable area, causes the vehicle to stop with its position and direction with respect to the stopper matching a predetermined position and direction. The parking assistance control device causes the vehicle to stop with the distance between the vehicle's predetermined first reference point and the stopper matching a first predetermined value so that the vehicle is forward-parked in the state where the front end of a part, provided on the vehicle's front side and lower than the stopper, is separated from the stopper.
