Abstract: A safety steering-wheel has a rim situated in front of a central hub of the wheel. Only two legs are fixed to the rim and are inclined therefrom rearwardly toward the central hub, these legs when projected onto a plane which contains the rim extending along radii of the latter which are situated relatively close to each other. At least one of these legs is fixed to the hub. Fixed to the hub or at least one of the above legs is a substantially gallows-shaped complementary portion which is situated in the vicinity of the hub, with this complementary portion situated behind the plane of the rim but forwardly of the hub. The above legs and complementary portion when projected onto a plane which contains the central axis of the hub form a substantially V-shaped configuration, the crest of which is situated adjacent the hub, the complementary portion being inclined oppositely to the legs and extending to the side of the hub axis opposite from the legs.
