Abstract
A motor vehicle includes a vehicle wheel which is pivotable around a pivoting axis by a steering device such that cornering and/or changes of a direction of the motor vehicle is causable. An occupant protection device is triggerable in an event of an imminent collision or in an event of a detected collision and thus is movable from a starting position into a protection position such that a driver sitting on a seat system of the motor vehicle, or a body part of the driver, is movable. A coupling device couples the vehicle wheel to the occupant protection device where, via the coupling device, when the occupant protection device is triggered, a pivoting angle of the vehicle wheel around the pivoting axis caused by a steering intervention of the driver is influenceable.
