A vehicle-pedal-backward-displacement preventing device for preventing a depressable portion of an operating pedal from being displaced toward an operator's seat of the vehicle in the event of displacement of a dash panel of the vehicle toward the operator's seat. The device includes a connecting member which is disposed between a pedal bracket and a reinforcement member of the vehicle and connects the pedal bracket with the reinforcement member, and which is deformable in the event of displacement of the dash panel toward the operator's seat. The connecting member includes a contactable portion which is to be brought into contact with the operating pedal upon deformation of the connecting member, for thereby causing the operating pedal to be pivoted in such a direction that causes the depressable portion of the operating pedal to be displaced in the forward direction of the vehicle.
