Provided is a control device for a vehicle, the device comprising: a travel control unit that executes automatic operation; and an actuator group that is controlled by the travel control unit. The control device is provided with: a switching control unit that controls switching between automatic operation and manual operation; and a road surface determination unit that determines whether a road surface on which the vehicle is traveling satisfies a predetermined condition. If it has been determined by the switching control unit that a switch from automatic operation to manual operation is necessary, the travel control unit executes automatic operation in a first mode if the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling satisfies the predetermined condition, and executes automatic operation in a second mode if the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling does not satisfy the predetermined condition. The rate of deceleration in the automatic operation in the second mode is greater than the rate of deceleration of the automatic operation in the first mode.
