If a child seat can be correctly installed and is approved for any of the vehicle’s three rear seats, which position is preferred for its greater distance from the sides?

Correct answer

the central rear seat, as it is less affected by side impacts.

The centre rear seat, provided the seat and vehicle are compatible and allow correct installation under their manuals. Not all centre seats have ISOFIX or accept every child seat. If incompatible, use an approved rear position where the restraint can be correctly secured; do not sacrifice correct installation to use the centre.
