To provide a vehicle control device capable of reducing the frequency with which driving control levels that require driver intervention are applied.SOLUTION: The vehicle control device is configured as follow: when an object that has a risk of collision with a vehicle 10 is detected based on a sensor signal of any one of multiple sensors (3-1, 3-2, 4) mounted on the vehicle 10, the level of automatic driving control applied to the vehicle 10 is shifted to a second level where it does not require accelerator and steering operations but requires the driver to monitor surroundings of the vehicle 10 from a first level that does not require the driver to operate the accelerator and steering and monitor the surroundings of the vehicle 10. On the other hand, when an object that has a risk of colliding with the vehicle 10 is detected from the sensor signals of two or more sensors, the automatic driving control level is shifted from the first level to a third level that requires driver operation of at least one of the accelerator and steering.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
【課題】ドライバの運転操作への介在を必要とする運転制御レベルが適用される頻度を少なくすることができる車両制御装置を提供する。【解決手段】車両制御装置は、車両10に搭載された複数のセンサ(3-1、3-2、4)のうちの何れか一つのセンサのセンサ信号から車両10と衝突する危険性が有る物体が検出されると、車両10に適用される自動運転制御のレベルを、ドライバによるアクセル及びステアリングの操作及び車両10周囲の監視を必要としない第1のレベルから、ドライバによる車両10周囲の監視を必要とするものの、アクセル及びステアリングの操作を必要としない第2のレベルに遷移させ、一方、二つ以上のセンサのセンサ信号から車両10と衝突する危険性が有る物体が検出されると、自動運転制御のレベルを、第1のレベルからドライバによるアクセル及びステアリングの少なくとも一方の操作を必要とする第3のレベルに遷移させる。【選択図】図3
