ABSTRACT:
A vehicle steering wheel has the wheel rim connected to the hub by a dished metallic member that has a plurality of slots extending in spaced overlapping relationship around the dished member. The slotted dished member is relatively strong when steering effort is applied but in the event of driver impact is relatively easily tiltable to spread the impact load on the driver's chest and is then collapsible to absorb substantial impact energy.
