Abstract: This vehicle control device comprises an autonomous driving control unit which automatically controls the stopping of a vehicle. If it is determined by a crossing determination unit that there is no crossing, the autonomous driving control unit controls the stopping of the vehicle so that the vehicle is stopped at a standard target stop position corresponding to a stop line on the basis of the positional information of the stop line, whereas if it is determined by the crossing determination unit that there is a crossing, the autonomous driving control unit controls the stopping of the vehicle so that the vehicle is stopped at a position before the standard target stop position on the basis of the positional information of the stop line.
