Provided is a horizontally located sensitive angular velocity sensor capable of easily eliminating influence of acceleration in a lateral direction and whose fixed section is easily fixed. The angular velocity sensor includes a pair of fixed sections fixed on a top of an sensor support section of a case, a detection arm extending along a plane parallel to the sensor support section, and a pair of upper drive arm and lower drive arm extending along the plane parallel to the sensor support section and extending in a direction opposite to each other so as to intersect an extending direction of the detection arm.
