Abstract
A vehicle control device causes a vehicle to autonomously travel, and, if at least one of one or more predetermined conditions is met, then requests the driver to perform manual driving. The vehicle control device is provided with a condition determination unit and a deceleration selection unit. The condition determination unit determines whether or not said one or more predetermined conditions are met. The deceleration selection unit then selects whether or not to decelerate the vehicle when requesting the driver to perform said manual driving, on the basis of met predetermined conditions (if any).
