An off-road dump truck includes a vehicle body, a peripheral recognition device, and an obstacle discrimination device. The peripheral recognition device detects obstacle candidates in front of the vehicle body. The obstacle discrimination device classifies the obstacle candidates, which were detected by the peripheral recognition device, into obstacles and non-obstacles and outputs, as obstacles, the obstacle candidates classified as obstacles. The obstacle discrimination device includes a travel state determination section, a distance filter section, and a reflection intensity filter section. The travel state determination section determines whether each obstacle candidate is a moving object or a stationary object. The distance filter section compares a distance, where the stationary object was first detected, with a distance threshold. The reflection intensity filter section calculates statistical information based on reflection intensity information on the obstacle candidate, and based on a comparison result of the statistical information with a threshold, classifies the obstacle candidate.
