Abstract
The present application aims at enabling a driver to grasp a passing situation of a vehicle when passing through a narrow road existing on a travel path of the vehicle, according to a display mode of a specific surrounding situation display indicating a surrounding situation of the vehicle displayed on a display section. A display control device is provided with a control section which displays a surrounding situation display indicating a surrounding situation of the vehicle when viewed from a virtual viewpoint and a vehicle display indicating the vehicle on a display section, according to detection information detectable by the vehicle, and changes a display mode of the specific surrounding situation display according to an estimated passing situation of the vehicle when passing through a narrow road existing on a travel path of the vehicle, in a case where the vehicle approaches within a prescribed distance.
