Are passengers on the taxi’s back seat exempt from wearing a seat belt on urban roads?
- Yes, but only while driving on dirt roads.
- Yes, but only on urban roads with a separation area.
- No.
- Correct answer: Yes.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Yes.
By law, passengers on the back seat of a taxi travelling on an urban road are exempt from wearing a seat belt. The exemption depends only on two things: the back seat of a taxi and an urban road. It has nothing to do with dirt roads or a separation area. Outside urban roads the exemption does not apply, and buckling up is always safer.
