With conventional automatic drive control, no consideration is given to whether the driver is in a condition to be able to drive the vehicle properly when automatic driving is cancelled. Accordingly, an automatic drive control device is switchable between a manual driving mode in which driving operation by the driver of the vehicle is required, and an automatic driving mode in which driving operation by the driver of the vehicle is not required. The device is equipped with: a surrounding conditions recognition unit for recognizing surrounding conditions of the vehicle; an information notification unit for notifying the driver of the vehicle; and an automatic drive control unit for carrying out control of the vehicle in automatic driving mode, and controlling the information notification unit in such a way as to alert the driver of the vehicle on the basis of the surrounding conditions recognized by the surrounding conditions recognition unit.
