Abstract
A driving support device includes a sensor configured to acquire data of a space inside a vehicle and data of a space outside the vehicle and a controller. The controller is configured to: determine whether the vehicle is in an abnormal state based on the data acquired by the sensor; upon determining that the vehicle is in the abnormal state, output a message indicating that the vehicle is in the abnormal state to a user on the vehicle; and acquire an answer from the user to the message via an input device.

A driving support device comprising:
- a sensor configured to acquire data of a space inside a vehicle and data of a space outside the vehicle;
- and
- a controller,
- wherein the controller is configured to:
- determine whether the vehicle is in an abnormal state based on the data acquired by the sensor;
- upon determining that the vehicle is in the abnormal state, output a first message indicating that the vehicle is in the abnormal state to a user on the vehicle;
- acquire a first answer from the user to the first message via an input device;
- propose use of a support function for supporting the user based on the first answer from the user to the first message;
- and
- acquire a second answer from the user to the proposed use of the support function via the input device;
- wherein the first message includes a message for confirming the responsibility to the user, a message concerning a state of the vehicle, a message for confirming a feeling of the user, or a message for confirming safety of the user;
