Abstract
On a road on which a first lane, a second lane, and a third lane or a road shoulder are adjacent to each other, a vehicle control device executes an automatic lane change from the first lane to the second lane. In the case that a traffic regulating object that regulates passage of traffic in the third lane or on the road shoulder is placed in the third lane or on the road shoulder, and an external environment recognition unit recognizes the traffic regulating object, a lane change control unit restricts the automatic lane change.
