A steering system (1) in which variations in the idle-moving distance are reduced is provided. The steering system (1) includes an upper bracket (5), an engaging portion (52) movable togeter with the upper bracket (5), a fixing portion (45), and an absorbing member (9). The position of the fixing portion (45) relative to a vehicle body (2) after a secondary collision is the same as that before the secondary collision. The absorbing member (9) has a fixed portion (46) fixed to the fixing portion (45), an engaged portion (47) opposed to the engaging portion (52), a connecting portion (48) that connects the fixed portion (46) and the engaged portion (47) to each other, and an idle-moving portion (49). Due to the presence of the idle-moving portion (49), the engaged portion (47) is located apart from the engaging portion (52) by a prescribed idle-moving distance (D). At the time of the seconday collision, the upper bracket (5) is moved in a prescribed moving direction (A). The absorbing member (9) absorbes energy of the secondary collisiong by deforming the connection portion (48) after engagement between the engaging portion (52) and the engaged portion (47). |
