Abstract
A driving support ECU () of a driving support device () executes automatic deceleration control for decelerating a vehicle () without a driver operating a brake pedal () when it is determined that a specific condition indicating that the driver intends to turn the vehicle () to the right or left at an intersection present in front of the vehicle () is satisfied. When a direction indicator () stops operating during execution of the automatic deceleration control, the driving support ECU () continues the automatic deceleration control until a predetermined time period elapses from a time point at which the direction indicator () stops operating, and ends the automatic deceleration control when the direction indicator () continues to stop operating from when the direction indicator () stops operating until the predetermined time period elapses.
