VEHICLE CONTROLLER

A vehicle controller includes a situation determination unit 31 that determines whether a vehicle 1 under manual driving control is in a situation that allows for starting autonomous driving control of the vehicle 1, and a transition determination unit 32 that switches, when the vehicle 1 is in a situation that allows for starting autonomous driving control, control of the vehicle 1 from manual driving control to autonomous driving control in the case where operating mode of a device (16, 17, or 19) related to ensuring visibility of a driver of the vehicle 1 is set to automatic mode to automatically control the device. The transition determination unit 32 continues manual driving control in the case where the operating mode of the device (16, 17, or 19) related to ensuring the driver's visibility is set to manual mode to manually control the device and where the driver's visibility will not be ensured unless the device operates.
