Vehicle control device

A vehicle control device comprising;

• a first sensor configured to obtain first information on a road shape of a traveling road on which a vehicle is traveling;
• a second sensor configured to obtain second information on the road shape separately from the first sensor;
• and
• a control device configured to:
• calculate a first target acceleration which is a target acceleration used when the vehicle travels in a curved section of the traveling road based on the first information, in a case where a first situation has been occurring, wherein the first situation occurs when the first information indicates that the traveling road is in the curved section;
• calculate a second target acceleration which is a target acceleration used when the vehicle travels in the curved section of the traveling road based on the second information, in a case where a second situation has been occurring, wherein the second situation occurs when the second information indicates that the traveling road is in the curved section;
• control the vehicle, when only either one situation of the first situation and the second situation has been occurring, such that an actual acceleration of the vehicle approaches one of the target accelerations which is calculated when the only either one situation has been occurring;
• and
• control the vehicle, when both situations of the first situation and the second situation have been occurring, such that the actual acceleration approaches a higher priority target acceleration with a higher priority between the first target acceleration and the second target acceleration.
