ABSTRACT:
An automatic vehicle-stopping structure according to which a vehicle body carries at an outermost part, which leads the remainder of the vehicle body when the latter travels in a given direction, a container which contains a fluid and which has most distant from the outermost part of the vehicle body a flexible wall to be engaged and deformed by a person or object which comes into contact with the fluid-container during travel of the vehicle. The interior of the container communicates with a pressure-responsive switch. The latter switch changes from one position to another in response to deformation of the flexible wall of the container. When the switch changes its position automatically in this manner, it actuates at least a control for engaging the brakes of the vehicle so that the vehicle will be automatically stopped under the above conditions.
