Abstract
Provided is a vehicle including: a brake pedal configured to be able to operate a foot brake device; an accelerator pedal located on a right side of the brake pedal; a shift lever; a steering wheel; and a handbrake device which includes a brake lever extending in a front-rear direction and a grip provided at a rear end of the brake lever, and is configured to be able to manually operate and release a parking brake by a parking brake device. The handbrake device supports the brake lever so that the grip is movable between a first position at which the parking brake is released and a second position at which the parking brake is operated. The second position is set to a position at which the grip is recognized upon a start operation with any one of the accelerator pedal, the shift lever, and the steering wheel.
