Question 850

Are 6 people allowed to travel in a passenger car with five seats, including the driver's seat?

  1. Yes, if the vehicle is driven only on urban roads.
  2. No, because exceeding the authorized number of seats is not allowed.
  3. Yes, if the vehicle's maximum authorized mass (MMA) is not exceeded.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, because exceeding the authorized number of seats is not allowed.

The number of occupants must not exceed the authorized seating capacity, which includes the driver. Six people therefore cannot travel in a five-seat passenger car.
