Vehicle Control Device And Vehicle Control Method

Abstract: This vehicle control device comprises: a recognition unit that recognizes a surrounding situation on the basis of the detection results of an external sensor; a traveling path generation unit that generates a traveling path from a current point to a target point on the basis of the recognition by the recognition unit; and a transitionable point determination unit that determines a transitionable point at which an automatic operation mode may be transitioned to a manual operation mode while an operation task is being performed in the automatic operation mode. The traveling path generation unit generates a first traveling path, which is a traveling path from the current point to the target point, and a second traveling path, which is a traveling path from a point on the first traveling path to the transitionable point.
