Abstract: A solid object detection device detects solid objects in the periphery of a vehicle. A camera captures images including detection regions set in adjacent traffic lanes to the rear of the vehicle. A solid object assessment unit assesses whether or not a solid object is present in the detection regions. A lateral position detection unit detects a distance between the vehicle position and a dividing line that divides traffic lanes. A region setting unit enlarges the detection region on the side of the dividing line by a greater amount correspondingly with respect to an increase in the distance to the dividing line. A traffic lane change detection unit detects a traffic lane change made by the vehicle. Upon detecting a traffic lane change by the vehicle, a smaller enlarged amount is used when enlarging the size of the predetermined region outward in the vehicle-width direction.
