Abstract:

A vehicle control device includes a recognizer that is configured to recognize a peripheral situation of a vehicle and a driving controller that is configured to execute automated driving for controlling a speed and steering of the vehicle on the basis of a recognition result of the recognizer. The recognizer is configured to recognize a real-time environment including a situation of a nearby vehicle or a situation of a nearby road on which the vehicle travels, and the driving controller is configured to shunt the vehicle to a shunt location to suspend the automated driving in a case where the real-time environment corresponds to a predetermined condition, and resume the automated driving in a case where the predetermined condition is resolved after the shunt.
