Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus allowing a user to easily grasp the behavior of a virtual vehicle by appropriately visualizing a load according to the traveling state. SOLUTION: An operation input receiving part 201 receives an operation input toward the virtual vehicle traveling a traveling path. A traveling state management part 203 manages the traveling state of the virtual vehicle based on the received operation input. On the other hand, a load calculation part 205 calculates the load applied to a virtual driver in the virtual vehicle based on the managed traveling state. A meter drawing part 206 generates a meter image disposed with a head symbol in a circle. Practically, the meter drawing part 206 disposes the head symbol moved from the center of the circle in the corresponding direction by a corresponding distance according the calculated load. A display control part 207 displays the generated meter image on a predetermined monitor. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
