The invention concerns an automotive vehicle. This vehicle comprises a dashboard (26), steering control handles (28) distanced from the dashboard (26), the dashboard comprising a compartment (32) closed by a flap (34) and in which is arranged a protective bag (36) of supple material at least partially gas-tight, the vehicle further includes a gas source (38), the bag (36) being coupled to the gas source (38) and one or more accelerometers for automatically releasing the gas source (38) in response to abnormal behaviour of the vehicle, in that the bag (36) may assume a folded first state in which it is entirely housed within the compartment (32) and an inflated second state in which it extends out of the compartment (32) and in that the bag comprises a central portion (46) which is arranged so as to spread out, in the inflated state, over substantially the entire area of the dashboard (26).

Automotive vehicle including a security arrangement provided with an

The vehicle steering control device comprises a steering control member actuatable by the driver and a slaving device comprising two sensors each supplying a detection signal representative, respectively, of the angular position of the vehicle's steerable wheels and of the position of the control member, a motor for pivoting the steerable wheels in response to a control signal, and a slaving circuit producing this control signal in response to the detection signals. The steering control device further comprises a coupling member able to mechanically connect the steering control member to the steerable wheels when the slaving device is not working properly whereby, in such an event, the driver retains control over his vehicle's steering.
