When is the driver of a private vehicle exempt from wearing a seat belt?
- While moving forward during parking maneuvering.
- Correct answer: While driving in reverse.
- While exiting a roofed parking.
- While exiting a premises.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: While driving in reverse.
When driving in reverse, the driver must turn and look carefully backward, and the seat belt may limit movement and field of view. Therefore the law exempts the driver from wearing a seat belt while driving in reverse. There is no exemption while moving forward during parking maneuvering, while exiting a premises, or while exiting a roofed parking, so wearing a seat belt is mandatory.
