Abstract: A vehicular power window safety device by which the state of a foreign object being stuck is recognized only when the foreign object makes contact with a weather strip mounted on the upper portion of a door frame, deforming the weather strip, and preventing an excessive contact between the window glass and run channel from being misjudged as an object being jammed therebetween and thereby enabling to obtain an operational trustworthiness on the power window safety device. The device comprises a motor for generating the driving power for lifting and lowering a window glass; a weather strip mounted on an upper area of a door frame and inherently provided with a sensor of which electric resistance is changed by pressure provided by a foreign object stuck in between the weather strip and the window glass due to the lifting of the window glass; and a controller for controlling the motor in response to signals supplied from the sensor.
