Is it permitted for any person, apart from the driver, to be inside a vehicle while being towed?
- Passengers who were inside the car when it broke are allowed to stay inside.
- Correct answer: No.
- Yes, provided that they wear seat belts.
- One accompanying person is allowed.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: No.
While a vehicle is being towed, no person may be inside it apart from its driver. The ban applies even if the passengers wear seat belts, even if they were inside the vehicle when it broke down, and even if it is one person accompanying the driver. Towing is more dangerous than ordinary driving, so passengers must get out of the vehicle before towing.
