A travel assistance device (30) comprises: a recognition unit (32, S402); a travel control unit (40, S408, S416); a sensor determination unit (34, S406); and a control determination unit (36, S400, S404, S412, S414, S418). The sensor determination unit determines whether a periphery detection sensor is operating normally or abnormally. The control determination unit determines, on the basis of the determination results of the sensor determination unit, whether the travel control unit is to control a lane change. L'invention concerne un dispositif d'aide au déplacement (30) comprenant : une unité de reconnaissance (32, S402) ; une unité de commande de déplacement (40, S408, S416) ; une unité de détermination de capteur (34, S406) ; et une unité de détermination de commande (36, S400, S404, S412, S414, S418). L'unité de détermination de capteur détermine si un capteur de détection de périphérie fonctionne normalement ou anormalement. L'unité de détermination de commande détermine, sur la base des résultats de détermination de l'unité de détermination de capteur, si l'unité de commande de déplacement doit commander un changement de voie. 走行支援装置（３０）は、認識部（３２、Ｓ４０２）と、走行制御部（４０、Ｓ４０８、Ｓ４１６）と、センサ判定部（３４、Ｓ４０６）と、制御決定部（３６、Ｓ４００、Ｓ４０４、Ｓ４１２、Ｓ４１４、Ｓ４１８）と、を備えている。センサ判定部は、周囲検出センサが正常であるか異常であるかを判定する。制御決定部は、センサ判定部の判定結果に基づいて、走行制御部が車線変更を制御するか否かを決定する。
