A vehicle control device has a processor configured to detect collision sound produced by collision between a vehicle and an object based on a sound signal acquired from a sound sensor and calculate reliability of the detected collision sound, determine whether the reliability is at or above a first reference value, determine whether a driving mode of the vehicle is a first driving mode in which a degree to which a driver participates in driving is low, or a second driving mode in which the degree to which the driver participates in driving is higher than the first driving mode, and decide to transfer the driving mode of the vehicle to the second driving mode when it has been determined that the reliability is at or above the first reference value and it has been determined that the driving mode of the vehicle is the first driving mode.
