Claim:
1. A vehicle behavior prediction device for predicting vehicle behavior based on traveling state information representing a traveling state of a vehicle, wherein the traveling state information includes at least one value of traveling speed of the vehicle and acceleration of the vehicle, the vehicle behavior prediction device includes a vehicle behavior prediction unit configured to: it is determined whether the at least one value belongs to the probability distribution depending upon whether the at least one value is included in one continuous region in which occurrence probability in the probability distribution is greater than zero, the traveling state information further includes a traveling location in which the at least one value was detected, the traveling location includes one of traffic elements including an intersection, a curve, and a temporary stop position, the vehicle behavior prediction unit is further configured to: the plurality of kinds of probability distributions includes a probability distribution at occurrence of specific vehicle behavior and a probability distribution at non-occurrence of the specific vehicle behavior, the vehicle behavior is deceleration behavior of the vehicle, and the vehicle behavior prediction unit is further configured to:
