The article discussed the development of a driving simulator for pedal error study among Malaysian drivers. Instead of conducting the naturalistic driving study, the driving simulation method is used in this study to investigate the pedal error situation. Several obstacle avoidance tasks are embedded in the driving simulation application developed to determine the driver’s foot placement on pedal, also face reaction during normal driving and emergency braking situation. Since the study is primarily concerned with automatic transmission vehicles, a driving simulator that simulates an automatic transmission vehicle has been developed. Malaysian drivers aged between 20 to 65 years old, with minimum of two years driving experience are the targeted participants in this study. In order to conduct the driving simulation study, a driving simulator developed is equipped with instruments such as cameras, screen monitor, steering wheel, and instrumented car pedals with force pressure sensor. Based on the result, the cameras captured the driver’s foot placement on pedals and face reaction clearly while driving the simulation car. The instrumented car pedals with force pressure sensor could detect the force applied by the drivers when they stepped on the pedals. The preliminary study shows that the simulation application run smoothly, also it shows the capability of the driving simulator and the driving simulation application developed to perform the driving simulation study for the driver’s response during obstacle avoidance task.
