Abstract
A vehicle control device includes a recognizer configured to recognize a surrounding situation of a vehicle, a driving controller configured to control the vehicle, and a first receiver configured to receive a switching operation on a driving mode. The driving controller causes the vehicle to travel in any one of a plurality of driving modes including a first mode and a second mode that a task imposed on an occupant is milder than that in the first mode, and performs acceleration/deceleration control so that a vehicle speed becomes a target speed in a state that the first mode is being executed and the second mode is executable and switches the driving mode from the first mode to the second mode when the first receiver has received an operation for switching the driving mode to the second mode in a state that the speed has become the target speed.
