To guide a driver to perform an operation for decelerating a vehicle at an early stage, in a case that a wrong stepping operation is performed.SOLUTION: A driving support ECU transmits a wrong stepping attention-calling display command to a display ECU 50 when a wrong stepping operation determination condition is satisfied. The display ECU 50 displays an attention-calling symbol A in a display unit when receiving the wrong stepping attention-calling display command. In the attention-calling symbol A, an arrow c is added to a drawing pattern seen from a vehicle lateral direction and showing a state where a pedal b is stepped on by a foot a. The arrow c is an arrow directed in a direction of separating the foot a from the pedal b, and is arranged such that its base end part c1 coincides with a position on a tip side of the foot a.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】 誤踏み操作が行われた場合に、車両を減速させる操作をドライバーが早期に行えるように誘導する。【解決手段】 運転支援ＥＣＵは、誤踏み操作判定条件が成立した場合、誤踏み注意喚起表示指令を表示ＥＣＵ５０に送信する。表示ＥＣＵ５０は、誤踏み注意喚起表示指令を受信すると、表示器に注意喚起用図柄Ａを表示する。この注意喚起用図柄Ａは、足ａでペダルｂを踏んでいる状態を車両の横方向から見て表した図柄に、矢印ｃを付与したものである。この矢印ｃは、足ａをペダルｂから離す方向に向いた矢印であって、その基端部ｃ１が足ａの先端側の位置となるように配置される。【選択図】 図３
