Abstract
A vehicle automatic deceleration control device includes a driver imaging camera as a driver state detection device that detects a state of a driver and a control unit that automatically decelerates a vehicle at a predetermined deceleration to stop the vehicle by controlling a brake device when the driver is detected to be in a state in which the driver is unsuitable for driving. The control unit is configured to determine whether a road on which the vehicle is traveling is a motorway, set the predetermined deceleration to a first deceleration when the road is determined to be the motorway, and set the predetermined deceleration to a second deceleration that is higher than the first deceleration when the road is determined not to be the motorway.
