Abstract PURPOSE:To protect human body from being held between a steering wheel and a seat when rotating the seat against the doorway and to facilitate getting on/off by interlocking the position of steering section with the seat position. CONSTITUTION:It is comprised of a motor M1 for driving seat rotating mechanism for rotating the driver seat around the vertical axis, and motors M2, M3 for driving the tilt steering mechanism concerning to the steering wheel and the telescopic steering mechanism respectively. Upon detection of getting on/off condition through car condition detecting means including at least one stop detection means functionable with correspondence to the existence of car stop condition, said motors M1-M3 are driven to control respective mechanism such that the steering wheel and the seat are set automatically to bring the potentiometers PM1-PM3 for detecting respective position into such condition for detecting the getting on/off position respectively.
