To provide a rear image recording device which is improved so as to increase such a possibility that a driver of a following vehicle is imaged and recorded in such a state that the following vehicle excessively gets close to the own vehicle in comparison to a conventional technique.SOLUTION: A vehicle rear image recording device comprises: a rear camera as an imaging unit which images the rear side of the own vehicle; a cut-out control unit (S90) which cuts out a prescribed range of an image captured by the imaging unit; a storage as a recording unit which records the image cut out by the cut-out control unit; a determination unit (S20) which determines whether or not there is the following vehicle in the captured image; and a change unit (S60) which changes the upper edge of the prescribed range to the upper side with respect to the captured image such that the reference position falls within the prescribed range when it is determined that the reference position of the following vehicle determined by the determination unit is located on the upper side of the prescribed range (S40).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
【課題】後続車両が自車両に過剰に接近する状況において後続車両の運転者を撮影し記録する可能性が従来に比して高くなるよう改良された後方画像記録装置を提供する。【解決手段】自車両の後方を撮像する撮像部としてのリアカメラと、撮像部により撮像された画像の所定の範囲を切り出す切り出し制御部(S90)と、切り出し制御部により切り出された画像を記録する記録部としてのストレージと、を含み、更に、撮像された画像中に後続車両があるか否かを判定する判定部(S20)と、判定部により判定された後続車両の基準位置が所定の範囲の上側に位置すると判定したときには(S40)、基準位置が所定の範囲内に収まるように、所定の範囲の上縁を撮像された画像に対し上方へ変更する変更部(S60)と、を含む車両用後方画像記録装置。【選択図】図5
