A management device includes a circuit. The circuit generates driving data of each of a plurality of areas, the driving data indicating a driving path in the area and causing a vehicle to autonomously drive along the driving path, while the vehicle is driving in each area, transmits driving data of an area next to the area to the vehicle via a base station of the area, and when driving data of a second area that is next to a first area is not transmitted to the vehicle via a base station of the first area while the vehicle is autonomously driving in the first area, after the vehicle has driven back to a previous area, transmits driving data of a different area that is located at a position from the previous area to a target spot to the vehicle via a base station of the previous area.
