A hollow energy-absorbing member (51, 52) is disposed along a longitudinal direction of the p portion (32) and the roof side rail (31) in such a manner as to be contiguous to a position where the air bag (10) is stored state between the pillar portion (32) and pillar garnish (42) for covering the pillar portion (32) and between the roof side a side rail garnish (41) for covering the roof side rail (31). The direction of deployment of the air bag (10) can thus be st reducing the amount of the garnish (42, 41) protruding into the passenger compartment, spaciousness of the passenger compartment, good visibility, and considerable ease with which a passenger can get on and off the vehicle can be guaranteed.
