VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE

A brake control device is a control device for a vehicle used in a vehicle on which the shift-by-wire system and the brake-by-wire system are mounted. A function of automatically operating the brake device without an operation of the driver of the vehicle is referred to as a BBW automatic operation function, and a request by the driver for disabling the BBW automatic operation function is referred to as a disabling request. A brake control device includes a disabling determination part configured to determine a presence or absence of the disabling request, the vehicle stop determination part configured to determine whether the vehicle is stopped, a slope determination part configured to determine whether the vehicle is located on a slope, and a BBW automatic operation part. The BBW automatic operation part operates the brake device when the vehicle is stopped on the slope even if the disabling request is made.
