In order to provide an inertial sensor capable of suppressing a wrong diagnosis even in an adverse environment such that sudden noise occurs, an inertial sensor is provided with a movable part (105), a first detection unit (C1, C2) for detecting the amount of displacement of the movable part (105), a forced vibration means (503, C3, C4) for forcedly vibrating the movable part (105) by applying a diagnosis signal, a physical quantity calculation unit (502) for calculating the physical quantity from a detection signal from the first detection unit (C1, C2), and an abnormality determination unit (504) for determining the presence or absence of the abnormality for the physical quantity using the diagnosis signal obtained via the first detection unit (C1, C2), and is used within a vehicle, the inertial sensor further comprising a second sensor (510) mounted in the same vehicle and connected to the abnormality determination unit (504).
