Question 5992

May a child under 12 years old who is 125 centimeters tall ride in the front seat of a passenger car without an approved restraint device?

  1. No, since the seat belt cannot be used.
  2. No.
  3. Yes, as long as the seat belt is fastened.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No.

No. At 125 cm, the child needs a child restraint system suited to their size and weight and, as a general rule, must ride in back. The seat belt is used, but together with that system, as the girl in the image is doing with her high-back booster seat.
