A door opening prevention mechanism (40) includes a lever member (41) rotatable with respect to a base member (10) and swingable in a vehicle inside-and-outside direction, and an urging member (42) configured to bias the lever member (41) toward a set position. The door opening prevention mechanism (40) can be arranged in accordance with a vehicle-width-direction space of a region in which a connection shaft (34) moves. The lever member (41) is held in the set position when an outer handle is located in a door closing position under a state in which a given inertial force does not act in a vehicle outside direction for a door in the event of collision of a vehicle, and swings in the vehicle outside direction from the set position to be moved to a locked position against an urging force of the urging member (42) when the inertial force acts. When the lever member (41) is located in the set position, movement of a connection lever (33) in a door opening direction is allowed. When the lever member (41) is located in the locked position, the movement of the connection lever (33) in the door opening direction is restricted. As a result, the door opening prevention mechanism configured to prevent an unlatching operation of a door latch mechanism in the event of collision of the vehicle can be configured compactly in the vehicle width direction. |
