  3. Taxi drivers on urban roads or on roads outside built-up areas.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drivers while backing up or parking.

The driver may go without a seat belt while backing up or parking, on any road. Taxi drivers have no exemption. In an emergency vehicle, the general exemption applies in built-up areas, not on roads outside them.
