BDifficulty 3/5

In a private car with no other applicable legal exemption, when may its driver dispense with the seat belt?

Correct answer

While performing a reversing or parking manoeuvre.

During a reversing or parking manoeuvre, under Article 119.1.a. This exemption applies to the driver, not passengers. Urban driving alone does not exempt anyone. Other legal exemptions, such as a valid medical certificate, are excluded from this case. Keeping the belt fastened provides protection where it allows the manoeuvre to be performed properly.
