Abstract
A vehicle control system includes a control device configured to execute automatic driving control of a vehicle; an image capturing device configured to capture a surrounding image of the vehicle; and a recording device configured to record the surrounding image. The control device includes: a function classifying unit configured to classify functions of the automatic driving control into a first automatic driving function and a second automatic driving function; a state determining unit configured to determine whether the recording device is in a recordable state; and a function restricting unit configured to permit use of the first automatic driving function in a case where the state determining unit determines that the recording device is in the recordable state, and to prohibit the use of the first automatic driving function in a case where the state determining unit determines that the recording device is not in the recordable state.
