Abstract

A control device for controlling a host vehicle includes processing circuitry configured to: recognize partition lines marking off left and right sides of a travel path on which the host vehicle travels; estimate a possibility of the host vehicle to depart from the travel path based on a position and a posture of the host vehicle with respect to the recognized partition lines; and control the notification based on the estimated possibility of departing from the travel path, the driving status information, and a state of the travel path in a traveling direction of the host vehicle. The processing circuitry executes the notification when there is a curve with a curvature radius less than a predetermined value in the traveling direction, and there is a high possibility of departing from the travel path, and the driving status of the driver is not suitable for traveling on the travel path.
