In this study, a driving simulator was developed at low cost using a game engine and open data for the purpose of measuring driver behavior in a virtual road environment of a real urban general road. By utilizing open data PLATEAU, it was possible to construct an accurate road environment. The use of a game engine enabled control of other vehicles and pedestrians, as well as operation using a steering wheel controller. The developed driving simulator was confirmed to have good operability and a certain degree of practicality. The driving simulator will be further improved in the future. In addition, we will expand the simulator to a cycling simulator to deal with serious accidents involving bicycles as well as automobiles.
