1. A vehicle steering system provided in a vehicle that travels by a driving force generated by a driving source, comprising;
a steering member configured to accept a steering operation; and
a reaction force actuator configured to apply a reaction force to the steering member in response to the steering operation, wherein
in a state where the driving source is stopped, the reaction force actuator is configured to apply the reaction force to the steering member based on a stopped time position that is a position of the steering member at a time when the driving source is stopped, and
a maximum value of the reaction force that the reaction force actuator applies to the steering member in the state where the driving source is stopped is smaller than a maximum value of the reaction force that the reaction force actuator applies to the steering member in a state where the driving source is operating.
