A brake pedal apparatus of a vehicle is provided with a pedal bracket having a shaft and a first fixed portion to a first vehicle body member at its front portion, a pivot bracket rotatable pivoted to the shaft and provided with a pedal shaft apart from the shaft in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle, a pedal arm rotatably pivoted to the pedal shaft, and a lock plate having an engagement portion allowing relative movement with respect to at least the pivot bracket when a backward input over a predetermined load is applied to the pedal bracket and engaging with the pivot bracket in a normal state. In this structure, when the backward input over the predetermined load is applied to the pedal bracket, whereby the lock plate relatively moves, an engagement between the pivot bracket and the lock plate is disconnected, and the pivot bracket is downward rotated around the shaft
