To suppress excessive notification by a notification unit.SOLUTION: A forklift includes an object detection unit, a notification unit, a control unit, and a parking switch. The object detection unit detects the position of an object. The notification unit provides notification to the operator of the forklift. The parking switch detects whether a parking brake is operating. If the parking switch is on, the parking switch does not detect the operator's intention to start the forklift. If the operator of the forklift does not have the intention to start, the notification by the notification unit is stopped.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
