We provide a highly practical steer-by-wire steering system. [Solution] In a steer-by-wire steering system installed in a vehicle equipped with a drive simulator, the operating device 18 is used to operate the simulated vehicle that is the target of operation in the drive simulator when the drive simulator is functioning, and the controllers 40 and 42 are configured to apply an operating reaction force Tc, which includes a vertical acceleration dependent component Tci based on a signal from the drive simulator regarding the vertical acceleration Gz of the simulated vehicle, to the operating member 10 via a reaction force application device 12 in that simulator mode. When the simulated vehicle deviates from the course, the driver can appropriately feel that deviation.
