Abstract
A vehicle is switchable between autonomous driving and human driving, and includes a partition setting permission device. The partition setting permission device is set to permit setting of a partition that is a visual partition between occupants when the vehicle is autonomously driving. That is, the partition setting permission device does not operate during human driving. Therefore, when the vehicle is operated by human driving, a field of view is not obstructed by the partition. On the other hand, when the vehicle is autonomously driving, providing the partition makes it possible to secure a private space.
