What type of safety devices must be used by a passenger who is between 135 and 150 centimeters tall?
Traffic safety: Transported persons and cargo
Explanation
Travelers who measure between **135 and 150 centimeters** have two safety options when traveling in a vehicle: they can use an **approved restraint device** or the **seat belt**.
- **Approved restraint device**: These devices are designed to fit the child's height and weight, providing adequate protection. They are especially recommended for children who have not yet reached a sufficient height for the standard seat belt to be effective.
- **Seat belt**: Once the child reaches a height of 135 centimeters, they can begin to use the vehicle's seat belt, as long as it fits their body correctly. It is important that the belt goes across the chest and not the neck, and that the lower part of the belt is over the hips, not the abdomen.
Both options are valid and safe, as long as they are used correctly and meet the child's needs. Therefore, the correct answer is that they can use **the approved restraint device or the seat belt**.
