Abstract
A vehicle includes vehicle devices configured to adjust a lateral movement amount of the vehicle, and a steering wheel lock mechanism. The vehicle devices include a front-wheel steering device and a remaining device that is a device other than the front-wheel steering device. When there is an anomaly in the front-wheel steering device, a vehicle control device switches a state of the steering wheel lock mechanism from a deactivated state to an activated state. The control device adjusts the amount of lateral movement of the vehicle by activating the remaining device when rotation of the steering wheel is disabled.
