Provided is a driving evaluation device that enables evaluation of driving for the purpose of improving a driving time in a circuit racecourse, for example. The driving evaluation device includes an evaluation section extractor 24 that detects a deceleration section and an acceleration section in cornering, a section average classifier 25 that calculates, based on a front-rear acceleration and a lateral acceleration, an acceleration norm average value in the deceleration section and that in the acceleration section, and a skill deficiency evaluator 28 that evaluates driving skill based on the acceleration norm average value in the deceleration section and that in the acceleration section.
