ABSTRACT:
A shift lever apparatus for use with an automatic transmission of the type which is incorporated in a vehicle has a shaft member which is adapted to be rotated about its axis by the operation of a seat occupant and a shift lock mechanism arranged to engage with the shaft member to inhibit the rotation of the shaft member when the shift-lever position of "parking" or "neutral" is selected, as well as to disengage from the shaft member by the braking operation of a brake operating mechanism which is mechanically connected to the shift lock mechanism to thereby allow the shaft member to rotate about its axis. Accordingly, when the shift-lever position of "parking" or "neutral" is selected, the position of a shift lever can be changed to another shift-lever position if the shaft member is not in a braked state.
