A brake light activation determining device has a processor configured to detect decrease in the speed of a vehicle ahead, which is located ahead of one's own vehicle, based on output information from a sensor that acquires information relating to the vehicle ahead, to discriminate whether the brake light of the vehicle ahead is activated based on an image representing the vehicle ahead, and to determine that the vehicle ahead is braking, when it has been discriminated that the brake light of the vehicle ahead has been activated, when the speed decrease timing at which reduction in the speed of the vehicle ahead has been detected and the activation timing at which brake light activation by the vehicle ahead was discriminated are synchronized for the vehicle ahead.
