Question 1008 in the bank

Why is it prohibited to install stiff and protruding accessories inside the passenger compartment?

  1. Correct answer: Because these accessories might injure the passengers and the driver during an accident.
  2. To prevent any chance of damaging the vehicle’s tires.
  3. To avoid undermining the passengers’ field of vision while driving backwards.
  4. Because they disturb the vehicle’s reception of radio transmissions,

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Because these accessories might injure the passengers and the driver during an accident.

In a crash or emergency stop, the bodies of the driver and passengers are thrown hard forward or sideways. A stiff, protruding accessory inside the cabin can then cause serious injuries, which is why installing one is prohibited. Such items do not affect the tires or radio reception; the concern is the safety of the people inside.
