Question 5528

In a passenger car with five authorized seats, including the driver's seat, is it allowed to carry six people?

  1. Only when at least one of the occupants is a minor.
  2. Yes, as long as the vehicle's maximum authorized mass is not exceeded.
  3. No.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No.

No. If the passenger car has five seats, including the driver's seat, it may carry no more than five people, whether adults or children. Staying within the maximum authorized mass does not allow you to carry anyone extra. In the image, there are six people, four of them squeezed into the rear seat, and that is prohibited.
