A tiltable steering device comprises a support bracket fixed to a vehicle body, a steering column having one end pivotally secured to the support bracket by means of first horizontal shafts, a first engaging member fixed to the underside of the steering column and having a lower surface projecting downward in an arcuate form centered at the axis of the first horizontal shafts and having first engaging teeth formed on the downwardly projecting lower surface thereof, a second engaging member pivotally supported at its one end on a second horizontal shaft provided on the support bracket and provided with second engaging teeth provided on the upper edge of the other end thereof and engageable with the first engaging teeth; and a hanger plate rockable to cause the first and second engaging teeth to be brought into and out of engagement with each other and having a slot formed in one end thereof. The other end of the second engaging member and an intermediate portion of the hanger plate are pivotally supported by a third horizontal shaft, and a guide member projecting from one side of the support bracket is loosely received in the slot formed in the hanger plate, the slot having a form which does not conform with an arc centered at the third horizontal shaft.
