Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a memory configured to store a first target speed applied under a specific traveling situation and a second target speed that is equal to or less than the first target speed and applied to a traveling situation other than the specific traveling situation, and a processor configured to determine whether or not a traveling situation of the vehicle corresponds to the specific traveling situation, control a traveling speed of the vehicle in accordance with the first target speed when a traveling situation of the vehicle corresponds to the specific traveling situation, and control a traveling speed of the vehicle in accordance with the second target speed when a traveling situation of the vehicle differs from the specific traveling situation.
