Abstract
A virtual-accident-image generation device includes: a dangerous driving determiner capable of determining, based on vehicle information regarding a vehicle driven by a driver, that driving of the driver corresponds to dangerous driving; a virtual-accident-object generator that generates, based on the vehicle information and a determination result that was determined by the dangerous driving determiner and indicates that the driving of the driver corresponds to the dangerous driving, a virtual accident object that would potentially get into an accident with the vehicle if the virtual accident object were actually present, in an image of a scene where the driver is driving the vehicle; and a virtual-accident-image generator that generates, based on the virtual accident object generated by the virtual-accident-object generator, a virtual accident image showing a virtual accident between the vehicle and the virtual accident object, and outputs the virtual accident image generated.
