Disclosed is a control pedal support structure, which comprises a pedal bracket 3 fixed to a dash panel to extend in a rearward direction of a vehicle body, and a pedal body 2 swingably supported relative to the pedal bracket 3 through a pedal pivot shaft (first pivot shaft) 13 mounted to the pedal bracket 3 to extend in a lateral direction of the vehicle body. In the support structure, the pedal bracket 3 includes a mount hole zone 14 for mounting thereon the pedal pivot shaft 13, and a support zone 20 located below the mount hole zone 13 and adapted to support the pedal pivot shaft 13 from therebelow. The support structure includes dropping means adapted, during a vehicle collision, to deform the support zone 20 so as to allow the pedal pivot shaft 13 to be dropped below the mount hole zone 14.
