ABSTRACT:
A structure for controlling displacement of a vehicle pedal includes: a pedal bracket supporting a rotating shaft portion of a suspended-type vehicle pedal, a front end portion of the pedal bracket being joined to a first vehicle structural member which deforms substantially toward a rear of a vehicle when an external force of a predetermined value or greater is applied to a front portion of the vehicle, and a rear end portion of the pedal bracket being joined to a second vehicle structural member which is disposed at a substantially vehicle rear side of the first vehicle structural member; a separating device for canceling a joined state of the rear end portion of the pedal bracket and the second vehicle structural member by the pedal bracket being displaced substantially toward the rear of the vehicle, so as to separate the rear end portion of the pedal bracket and the second vehicle structural member; and a displacement controlling device disposed in a vicinity of the rear end portion of the pedal bracket, for controlling displacement of a stepping surface of the vehicle pedal by regulating displacement, in a substantially vehicle transverse direction, of the rear end portion of the pedal bracket which rear end portion has been separated from the second vehicle structural member.
