In a vehicle control system (1, 101, 201) configured for autonomous driving, a control unit executes a stop process by which the vehicle is parked in a prescribed stop area when it is detected that the control unit or a driver has become incapable of properly maintaining a traveling state of the vehicle, and a stop maintaining process for keeping the vehicle parked following the vehicle coming to a stop in the stop process. The control unit keeps the brake lamp turned on while the stop maintaining process is being executed.
