VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE MOUNTED ON VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE

A vehicle control device includes a communication unit configured to receive location information of a vehicle, a sensing unit, a display unit, and at least one processor that is configured to determine, based on the location information received by the communication unit, that the vehicle has entered an area within a predetermined distance from an intersection at which the vehicle changes a travel direction according to a preset route information. The at least one processor is further configured to detect an object located around the intersection through the sensing unit, and to control the display unit to output a route to an entrance of the intersection based on information related to the object located around the intersection.
