Is a child under 135 cm tall who uses a child restraint system allowed to travel in the front seat of a five-seat passenger car?
Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
Children who are less than **135 centimeters** tall must use a **child restraint system** appropriate for their height and weight. These systems are essential for their safety and should preferably be placed in the **rear center seat** of the vehicle, as it is the safest place in the event of an accident.
In general, children should not travel in the front seat of a car. However, there are **exceptions** where a child is allowed to travel in the front seat:
- If the vehicle does not have rear seats.
- If all the rear seats are occupied by other children.
- If it is not possible to install the child restraint system in the rear seats.
Therefore, a child under 135 cm in height can only travel in the front seat of a five-seater car for **exceptional reasons**.
