Show the correct answer
Correct answer
B. The third child may be transported if it is at least 3 years old and is restrained by means of a seat belt.
Explanation
The question is about carrying a third child on the rear seat of a passenger car when two children are travelling in child seats and a third child seat cannot be fitted. The third child may travel wearing a seat belt if they are at least 3 years old - answer B.
The Road Traffic Act allows a third child aged at least 3 years, restrained by seat belts, to be carried on the rear seat of a passenger car or a lorry of category N1 when two children are travelling in child seats and it is not possible to fit a third one. So the ban is not absolute (answer A), and the limit is the age of 3 years, not 5 years (answer C). The exception applies only when the third child seat physically does not fit - if it fits, it must be used. The exception does not cover a child under 3 years of age - in a passenger car such a child must travel in a child seat, because an adult seat belt could seriously injure them.
Legal basis: Art. 39 para. 3 and 3c and Art. 45 para. 2 point 5 of the Road Traffic Act (Prawo o ruchu drogowym)
