How would you seat a child more than three years and less than eight years of age inside a vehicle?
- Correct answer: In a safety seat or in a booster that fits his height and weight.
- Wearing any of the vehicle’s safety belts.
- Only in the vehicle’s back seat.
- Wearing a three-point safety belt.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: In a safety seat or in a booster that fits his height and weight.
A child between three and eight is too small for a regular seat belt, which is designed for adults. A safety seat or booster that fits the child's height and weight places the belt correctly across the shoulder and hips and protects the child in a crash. A belt alone, even a three-point one, is not enough, and sitting in the back seat does not replace the proper child seat.
