The electronic control unit is configured to generate a first traveling plan based on the recognized position, the recognized surrounding environment, and the recognized state of the vehicle and calculate reliability of the first traveling plan. The electronic control unit is configured to generate a second traveling plan of the vehicle based on one or two of the recognized position, the recognized surrounding environment, and the recognized state of the vehicle and calculate reliability of the second traveling plan. The electronic control unit is configured to select a traveling plan having the higher reliability out of the first traveling plan and the second traveling plan, and control the traveling of the vehicle by the actuator.
