A floor structure on a driver side of a vehicle where a control pedal, such as a brake pedal 5, adapted to be depressedly operated by a driver seated in a driver seat 1 is arranged at a front of a passenger compartment. The floor structure comprises a heel-placement zone 10 which is provided on an approximately horizontal floor portion 8 located rearward of a depressing point 5a of the control pedal, and formed to have a frontward region 11 adapted to allow a short person seated in the driver seat 1 to place his/her heel thereon and a rearward region 12 adapted to allow a tall person seated in the driver seat 1 to place his/her heel thereon. The heel-placement zone 10 including an inclined surface portion 14 formed in at least part thereof in such a manner as to rise relative to a surrounding area of the floor portion 8 and have an upper surface extending obliquely upwardly and frontwardly. The floor structure of the present invention can adjust a driving posture easily and adequately with a simple structure to allow a driver seated in the driver seat to adequately operate the control pedal.
