Question 8063

If the trip you are going to make with your vehicle is short, is it allowed to carry a small child in your arms?

  1. Yes, when the entire trip is on urban roads.
  2. No; a child restraint system must be used.
  3. Only if you are driving at a speed of 30 km/h or less.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No; a child restraint system must be used.

No. A child 135 cm tall or shorter must travel in their child restraint system, even on a short trip at low speed in the city. In a crash at just 5 km/h, no adult can hold on to the child.
