Which safety device must passengers over three years of age and shorter than 135 cm use?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Traffic regulations state that minors 135 cm tall or shorter must use a child restraint system. However, for those up to 135 cm, it is recommended and often necessary to continue using a homologated restraint system adapted to their size and weight (such as a booster seat with a backrest) to ensure the seat belt fits correctly over the collarbone and not the neck. Using only an adult seat belt is dangerous if the passenger is not tall enough, as it could cause serious injuries in the event of sudden braking or an accident.
