a recognition part that recognizes a plurality of signs indicating content of regulations relating to traveling of a vehicle on the basis of a captured image obtained by capturing a region ahead of the vehicle which travels in a road having plural lines for vehicles traveling in a same direction and wherein the plurality of signs are located over the road;
a first identification part that identifies, as a corresponding sign, a sign corresponding to a lane in which the vehicle travels among the plurality of signs recognized by the recognition part; and
an output part that outputs information corresponding to content of the regulations indicated by the corresponding sign, and wherein
the first identification part identifies a position of the lane on which the car vehicle travels on a basis of the captured image, identifies, as the corresponding sign, a sign in a first area immediately above a position of the lane in which the vehicle travels, identifies a sign in a second area on a right side of the first area as the corresponding sign when a sign cannot be recognized in the first area by the recognition part, identifies a sign in a third area on a left side of the first area as the corresponding sign when a sign cannot be recognized in either the first area nor the second area by the recognition part.
