Is it permitted to carry a child at least 135 cm tall and protected only by seat belts in the front seat of a vehicle?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
B. No, because the rules on the transport of children permit the transport of children at least 135 cm tall without a safety seat or other child restraint system only in the rear seat of the vehicle.
Explanation
The question is about carrying, in the front seat, a child at least 135 cm tall who is restrained only by seat belts. This is not allowed - the rules allow this only in the rear seat - the answer is B.
The Road Traffic Act allows a child who is at least 135 cm tall and restrained by seat belts alone to be carried only in the rear seat of the vehicle, and only when, because of the child's weight and height, it is not possible to provide a suitable child seat or other restraint device. A separate rule prohibits carrying, in the front seat, a child less than 150 cm tall outside a child seat or other restraint device - and a child 135 cm tall still falls into this group. Answer A wrongly extends the exception to the front seat, and answer C invents a condition about the vehicle having no rear seats, which does not exist in the rule.
