What conditions must be met when transporting a child in the back seat of a passenger car?

Description

Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2020, item 110, as amended) Art. 39 para. 3b
Explanation

Correct answer: The child being carried is at least 135 cm tall and fastened only with seat belts, as the weight and height precludes carriage in a safety seat or other child restraint systems.

According to the regulations, a child of at least 135 cm in height can be transported in the back seat without a child safety seat, but must be fastened with seat belts. This is possible when, due to the child's weight and height, it is no longer possible to provide a suitable safety seat or other restraint device. This is an exception to the general rule of transporting children in safety seats.
