BRAKE CONTROL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE

A brake control device includes: a decrease determination unit that determines whether a requested braking force for a vehicle is decreasing; and a brake control unit which, on the condition that the decrease determination unit determines that the requested braking force is decreasing during deceleration of the vehicle, executes ratio change decrease control of reducing the braking force of the vehicle according to the decrease of the requested braking force, while making a braking force distribution ratio smaller than a reference braking force distribution ratio. The reference braking force distribution ratio is the braking force distribution ratio at a time point when the requested braking force starts to decrease.
