Abstract
A vehicle control device is provided for activating a safety device to inhibit occurrence of a collision with a moving object around an own vehicle, when the own vehicle transitions from traveling straight in a lane in which the vehicle is traveling to making a turn. An area setting unit is configured to, based on at least one of an own vehicle speed and a moving object speed, set a potential collision area, provided that the moving object continues to move in its moving direction and the own vehicle is making a right/left turn. An acquisition unit is configured to acquire a position of the moving object relative to the own vehicle. A restriction unit is configured to restrict activation of the safety device against the moving object based on the position of the moving object being out of the potential collision area.
