Abstract
A vehicle control apparatus executes an automatic driving control for driving a vehicle to a target space based on an instruction transmitted by a remote operation apparatus that a user outside the vehicle operates. The vehicle control apparatus stops the vehicle and makes the remote operation apparatus perform a first notification, when a predetermined stop condition is satisfied while the automatic driving control is being executed. The vehicle control apparatus makes the remote operation apparatus perform a second notification in a manner that is different from the first notification, when the user does not approach the vehicle after the first notification.
