A road shape recognizer includes a peripheral information recognizer that recognizes at least two items of peripheral information based on an output of a periphery detector. A reliability assigner assigns a reliability level to each of the peripheral information. A point sequence generator generates and places a point sequence representing a shape of a road on which the own vehicle travels, based on at least two items of peripheral information and the reliability level. The point sequence generator generates and places a point sequence by generating and placing points one by one toward a distant place from a point located at a prescribed relative position to the own vehicle. The point sequence generator generates and places the next point corresponding to an amount of change in shape and a position of a point generated and placed at the end of the point sequence. The amount of change in shape is represented by the peripheral information and determined per section having a prescribed distance.
