Vehicle control device
An object of the vehicle control device according to the present invention is to provide a driver with acceleration/deceleration control of a vehicle with less discomfort even in a situation where correction of measurement of an inter-vehicle distance is required due to a temperature change or the like. The present invention is a vehicle control device 100 configured to perform acceleration/deceleration control of a vehicle according to a relative speed and an inter-vehicle distance with respect to a preceding vehicle obtained from a parallax image, in which the acceleration/deceleration control of the vehicle is performed with the inter-vehicle distance being less than a certain value, the vehicle control device 100 includes correction means 230 for, in a case where the parallax image is not acquired in a correct state due to distortion due to a temperature change or an incorrect mounting position, correcting the distortion or the incorrect mounting position by the acquired parallax image, and a start timing of the acceleration/deceleration control of the vehicle is changed during a correction operation by the correction means 230.
