Abstract:
A steering member comprises a beam member extending in a vehicle width direction, a steering bracket supporting a steering device, and side brackets fixed to hinge pillars. The beam member includes a weak portion provided between the steering bracket and the side brackets on a driver-seat side and configured to be weak against a load inputted in a vehicle longitudinal direction, and an extension portion provided to extend toward a vehicle outward side beyond the side bracket provided on a passenger-seat side and configured to prevent the steering member receiving the input load from sliding toward the passenger-seat side by contacting the hinge pillar. Accordingly, the steering device can be prevented from moving inward in a vehicle frontal collision, thereby restraining a passenger with an airbag properly.
