•  The intrusion minimizing brake pedal mechanism is structured to the brake pedal construction with the following parts.

•  In a frontal collision, the brake pedal is forced rearward by the movement of the engine and other parts.

•  Bracket A, which is fixed to the body, detaches from bracket B, which is fixed to the dashboard member, allowing the pedal arm fulcrum to contact the incline of bracket B.

•  As the amount of backward movement of the brake pedal increases, the pedal arm fulcrum point advances against the incline of bracket B, deforming bracket A.

•  The rearward movement of the brake pedal is prevented by the deformation of bracket A.
