1. A vehicle having an image projector for projecting an image on a road surface, the vehicle comprising:
a body,
a receiver that receives, as information about a vehicle, information about a direction indicator, information about a traveling speed of the vehicle, and information about a change in a steering-wheel steering angle of a steering wheel, the receiver is mounted on the vehicle; and
the image projector that projects the image onto a road surface around the vehicle based on the information from the receiver, wherein the image projector has functions of displaying the projected image as a moving image and fixing or moving a display position of the moving image as the image onto the road surface depending on a behavior of the vehicle,
wherein when the vehicle is changed to a traveling state from a stopping state at an intersection and a predetermined steering angle is detected, the image projector is configured to:
project a traveling path image to a fixed position on a road surface in the intersection, the traveling path image indicating a traveling path on which the vehicle travels in the intersection, and
even when the vehicle is traveling on a first part of the fixed position where the traveling path image is projected, continue to project a part of the traveling path image to a second part of the fixed position where the vehicle has not reached, and
wherein a leading end of the second part remains at a leading end of the fixed position on the road surface until the vehicle passes over the leading end of the fixed position of the road.
