an operation sensor that acquires information related to an operation mode of an operation device of an own vehicle;
a driver sensor that acquires information related to a direction to which a driver of the own vehicle is paying attention; and
a processor that controls the own vehicle so as to start the own vehicle in a predetermined mode when a predetermined first condition to determine that the preceding vehicle has started is satisfied and operation of the operation device is detected, in a situation where the preceding vehicle has stopped and the own vehicle has stopped right behind the preceding vehicle, wherein
the operation sensor includes a switch device, and
the processor is configured to
