The means described above has a construction wherein air dam skirt (1) separated from a car body (4) is suspended from the car body (4) in a floating state by members (3) having righting moment, contact members (5) or limit members (6) projecting vertically from the car body (4) or the air dam skirt (1) come into mutual sliding contact or mesh with one another and can move vertically on a predetermined orbit, and reverse lift plate (15) or bottom surface reverse lift plates (16) reliably lower the air dam skirt (1) to immediatly before front wheels when it is necessary to prevent lifting. The base of each contact member (5) or limit member (6) is fitted movably and is fixed by a shock absorbing member (17) of the member having righting moment so as to protect the air dam skirt (1) against breakage.
