PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a steering state notifying device capable of performing safe drive of a vehicle not in a hurry even when a hand of a driver slips during the steering operation. SOLUTION: A steering slip prediction unit 21 calculates the grip strength of a hand of a driver to grip a steering unit 11 to control the advancing direction of a vehicle, calculates the reaction force of the steering unit 11, predicts generation of a slip of the hand of the driver during the steering operation in advance based on the grip strength and the reaction force, and notifies generation of the slip of the hand of the driver during the steering operation in advance based on the result of prediction. Thus, in a steering state notifying system, a safe drive of the vehicle can be performed not in a hurry during the steering operation even when the hand of the driver slips when steering the steering unit 11.
