Patent attributes
A steering system includes an operation member; a first movement mechanism configured to move the operation member between a normal position at which the operation member is operated by a driver, and a storage area located forward of the normal position; and a control unit configured to control the first movement mechanism. The storage area is located inward of an opening of a vehicle member located in front of a driver's seat in the vehicle. The control unit is configured to control, in a case where the operation member is retracted into the storage area, the first movement mechanism to move the operation member forward at a first speed, and to move the operation member forward at a second speed that is lower than the first speed when a distance between the operation member and the vehicle member becomes equal to or less than a predetermined distance.
