During a period from when an automated driving vehicle starts pulling over to a sidewalk side until the vehicle pulls over completely thereto, an operation control section causes the vehicle to immediately stop when an object that can be an obstacle exists in at least one of a middle front area, a sidewalk-side front area, and a sidewalk-side side area that are areas each within a predetermined distance at a middle front, at a sidewalk-side front, and on a sidewalk-side side of the vehicle, respectively. During the period, the operation control section does not cause the vehicle to stop when the object does not exist in any of the middle front area, the sidewalk-side front area, and the sidewalk-side side area, even when the object exists in an area surrounding the vehicle other than the middle front area, the sidewalk-side front area, and the sidewalk-side side area.
