A bulkhead separating an engine compartment from a driver compartment of a motor vehicle is provided with an intentional buckling zone. The buckling zone is arranged so that a frontal impact moves the bulkhead and a bearing mount for pedal levers in such a way that the pedal levers are moved away from the operator. In one embodiment the buckling zone is produced by weakening the bulkhead material by making it thinner or providing holes or tucks in the material. When the buckling zone buckles in a frontal collision the bearing mount pivots upwardly, moving the pedal levers away from the vehicle operator. |
