Question 7384

For the purpose of counting the number of seats in a passenger car, children under 12 years old are counted as…

  1. one seat.
  2. half a seat, as long as they do not exceed 50% of the total.
  3. not occupying a seat if they are under 2 years old.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: one seat.

One seat. Each person counts as one seat, whether an adult, a child, or a baby. There is no such thing as half a seat, and a baby also occupies one, like the baby in the image, whose child seat takes up a whole seat.
