An apparatus for detecting information related to a side impact of a vehicle includes a sensor spaced from a metal object and located in a space defined by vehicle door panels, and a mounting portion to which the sensor is attached relative to the vehicle door. The sensor includes a ring-like coil parallel to the object, a housing for the coil that is coaxial with the coil, and a sensor bracket between the coil housing and the mounting portion. The sensor bracket includes a ring-like peripheral portion joined along a ring-like portion of the coil housing, a bottom portion spaced apart from and extending on the opposite side of the object with regard to the coil housing, and a standing portion between the peripheral portion and the bottom portion. The sensor detects a distance between the coil and the object based on a variation in current flowing through the coil.
