PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for executing a lane change in accordance with the situation on a road in a case where other vehicles traveling in line exist.SOLUTION: An operation signal based on an operation of a crew member for moving an own vehicle object from a first lane through a second lane to a third lane while passing a space between two other vehicles within an image that is reported from a notification device 2, is inputted to an operation signal input part 50. In a case where a lane change indicated by the operation signal is included in a normal zone, a command output part 55 outputs a command for traveling an own vehicle along a route that causes the own vehicle to avoid the space between the two other vehicles, to an automatic driving control device 30. In a case where the lane change indicated by the operation signal is included in an exception zone, the command output part 55 outputs a command for traveling the own vehicle along a route that causes the own vehicle to move into the space between the two other vehicles, to the automatic driving control device 30.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】隊列走行している他の車両が存在する場合に、道路の状況に応じて車線変更を実行する技術を提供する。【解決手段】操作信号入力部５０には、報知装置２から報知された画像内の２つの他車両オブジェクトの間を通って、第１車線から第２車線を経由して第３車線に自車両オブジェクトを移動させる乗員の操作による操作信号が入力される。コマンド出力部５５は、操作信号によって示される車線変更が通常区間に含まれる場合、２台の他車両の間を回避する経路を走行させるコマンドを自動運転制御装置３０に出力する。コマンド出力部５５は、操作信号によって示される車線変更が例外区間に含まれる場合、２台の他車両の間に割り込む経路を走行させるコマンドを自動運転制御装置３０に出力する。【選択図】図４
