A vehicle control system includes an imaging device, a map generating unit, and an own lane identifying unit. The own lane identifying unit is configured to identify one lane as an own lane on a map in a case where the one lane is an only lane present in a specific area on the map, compare a type of a delimiting line of a captured own lane with types of delimiting lines of a plurality of lanes on the map in a case where the plurality of lanes are present in the specific area on the map, and identify one of the plurality of lanes on the map as the own lane on the map in a case where the type of the delimiting line of the captured own lane matches only a type of a delimiting line of the one of the plurality of lanes on the map.
