A car does not have an appropriate restraint system for an eight-year-old child who is taller than 135 centimeters. Where should the child normally sit?
Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
For an eight-year-old child who is taller than 135 centimeters, it is important to follow certain safety rules when traveling in a vehicle.
- **Rear seat:** Children should travel in the rear seat of the vehicle. This is safer in the event of an accident, as they are more protected. Additionally, it is a general recommendation for all children, unless the vehicle does not have rear seats or they are occupied by other children.
- **Seat belt:** Even if the child is taller than 135 centimeters and does not need a specific child restraint system, they must wear the seat belt fastened. This is mandatory for all passengers in a vehicle that has seat belts installed.
By following these recommendations, the child's safety during the journey is ensured.
