A vehicle control unit includes: a sensor-signal processing unit that acquires sensor signals from multiple sensors detecting physical quantities related to the surrounding environment of a vehicle and acquires, from at least one camera capturing images of the surrounding of the vehicle, image data indicating the captured images; a human-vision calculating unit that uses a human visual model calculated in advance calculates a visibility repulsive potential affected by vision of a human recognizing the images; and a potential-risk-prediction-model processing unit that uses a potential-risk prediction model for predicting a potential risk from characteristic quantities of the surrounding environment of a target vehicle to calculate a physical repulsive potential caused by the surrounding environment of the target vehicle on the basis of the physical quantities and the images, and calculates an integrated repulsive potential obtained by correcting the physical repulsive potential with the visibility repulsive potential.
