Abstract

A communication control system includes: a communication device that receives real-time information necessary for a vehicle control from an information delivery device via one of base stations; and a control device that controls the vehicle based on the real-time information. The communication device generates prediction information indicative of an index of remaining time before a communicating base station is switched with timing while the vehicle is running. The control device reduces a service level of the vehicle control for supporting at least one of a driving determination and a driving operation performed by a driver of the vehicle within the remaining time, which is shown in the prediction information.
