The present invention relates to an automatic restoring device of a wheel of a scooter which includes a footboard, a steering rod and an automatic restoring device. The footboard is connected with the steering rod and the automatic restoring device at a free end thereof. Moreover, one end of the steering rod is secured with the automatic restoring device. A shaft is pivotally installed in the shaft sleeve of the automatic restoring device. The shaft bushing and the resilient element tightly enclose the shaft while a firm connection with the shaft sleeve is secured. Furthermore, the automatic restoring device is brought into rotation in turning the steering rod so that the wheel is also turned to change direction. And the resilient element creates a restoring force because of being pressed so that the wheel restores itself by means of the resilient force of the resilient element of the automatic restoring device after the external force upon the steering rod is removed.
