This paper presents several studies that illustrate approaches to simulator and vehicle dynamics simulation model validation. A total of 14 studies completed on nine different simulators that compare driver behaviour in simulated environments with real environments are presented. Validation studies completed on NADSdyna and VDANL vehicle dynamics simulation models are presented. Examining differences in driver behaviour in simulated and real environments can be a useful method to validate driving simulators. Care must be given to avoid generalising results from the assessment of individual behaviour characteristics for a given subset of the driving population. Results of such studies should not be assumed to hold true for other driving characteristics or other subsets of the driving population. Vehicle dynamics simulation model validation is necessary to ensure the accuracy of response predictions for a wide range of inputs. A comprehensive approach to validating a vehicle dynamics model will help provide useful results by ensuring that the simulation results can be compared with the data obtained from experimental testing.
