Question 6219
In which seat must a three-year-old child ride?
- On an adult's lap.
- In the rear seat with an approved restraint device suited to their height and weight.

Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: In the rear seat with an approved restraint device suited to their height and weight.
A three-year-old child is under 135 cm tall, so they must use an approved restraint system suited to their height and weight. As a general rule, they must ride in a rear seat. At that height, they cannot use just a seat belt, in either the front or back, or ride on an adult's lap.
