Abstract
A device for controlling a first vehicle includes a sensor device, a processor, and a travel control device. The sensor device generates a speed control command associated with a first rate of speed change of the first vehicle. The processor is configured to detect a target vehicle, wherein a distance between the first vehicle and the target vehicle is reduced based on the speed control command being executed; and generate a control signal for changing, at a second rate of speed change of the first vehicle, a speed of the first vehicle to a target speed during a speed changing period. The travel control device changes the speed of the first vehicle based on a control signal. A difference between the target speed and a speed of the target vehicle is less than or equal to a preset speed difference threshold.
