A long hole is provided on a bracket fixedly provided on a rear face of a dashboard such that the long hole is adjacent to a support hole supporting a pivot of an operating pedal with a partition wall provided between the long hole and the long hole. Also, a control lever is pivotally supported on a front face of the pivot via the operating pedal such that a lower arm of the control lever faces the front face. A stopper member fixedly provided on a vehicle body faces an upper arm of the control lever from behind. Therefore, when the control lever abuts against the stopper member and rotates as the dashboard is deformed rearward, the pivot breaks the partition wall to move rearward within the long hole due to an excessive load received from the control lever. Thus, the support hole of the pivot of the operating pedal can be formed into a circular shape conforming to an outer peripheral face of the pivot, so that no rattling occurs between the support hole and the pivot. Further, when the dashboard is deformed rearward, the pivot is moved rearward to prevent a tread portion of the operating pedal from coming closer to a driver. |
