A driving assistance device includes: an image capturing part configured to image-capture a rear lateral area of a host vehicle and a dead angle area; a display part configured to display a video image captured by the image capturing part; and a blinker switch configured to make a signal of a movement of the host vehicle to a first side or a second side. The display part displays the video image according to a turn on of the blinker switch indicating a movement of the vehicle to the second side, turns off the display of the video image when a predetermined amount of time elapses after the blinker switch is turned off, and turns off the display of the video image before the predetermined amount of time elapses when it is predicted that the host vehicle moves to the first side within the predetermined amount of time.
