Abstract
A technology of mechanically classifying a switching operation between a traveling mode and a special moving mode is provided to prevent a mode switching misoperation. A traveling mode switching mechanism of a four-wheel independent steering type vehicle includes a shift gate which is disposed by forming a moving path of a shift lever, and grouping a traveling mode and a special moving mode. Additionally, a mode switching differentiation devices differentiates a mode switching operation of a driver by configuring so that an operation of the shift lever switched between the traveling mode and the special moving mode is physically different from an operation of the shift lever switched between the traveling modes or between the special moving modes.
