Can an adult ride a motorcycle carrying a 10-year-old child as a passenger if they are not the child’s father, mother, or legal guardian?
Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
For a 10-year-old child to travel as a passenger on a motorcycle, certain conditions must be met. Although the child is over 7 years old, which allows them to travel on a motorcycle, they must do so under specific circumstances:
- **They must travel with one of their parents or with an adult who takes responsibility for them.** This means that if the adult taking the child is not their father, mother, or legal guardian, they need to have authorization from one of them to legally transport the child.
- Additionally, the child must follow all safety regulations, such as sitting correctly behind the driver and wearing the helmet properly.
Therefore, the correct answer is that the child can travel on the motorcycle only if authorized by one of their parents or their legal guardian.
