A passive safety device for vehicle, wherein a master back (6) is fixedly connected to a dash panel (20) side through a flexible pedal bracket (1), a striker (4) extends forward in longitudinal direction of a vehicle and, in normal condition that any external force does not act thereon, a front end (4a) of the vehicle is disposed so as to be projected from the dash panel (20), the striker (4) is pressed when the external force acts thereon and, accordingly, the pedal bracket (1) is deformed starting at a brittle part (16) thereof, and a master cylinder (7) is moved away from knees so that an interference between them can be avoided, whereby, when the external force acts on the front surface of a cab, a clutch mechanism part (24) and a brake mechanism part (25) are prevented from being interfered with the knees (31) of a passenger to increase an occupant's safety. <IMAGE> |
