BDifficulty 1/5

A child no taller than 135 cm travels in a private car equipped with seat belts, with no applicable exemption. Even on a short journey, may you hold the child in your arms instead of using a child restraint?

Correct answer

No, use a suitable child restraint.

No. Use an approved child restraint suitable for the child’s size and weight and installed according to its instructions. In this car the child normally uses a rear seat, subject to article 117.3 exceptions for the front seat while still using the restraint. Holding the child is no substitute; braking or a crash may prevent you from retaining them. Short distance and low speed do not waive the obligation.
