Correct answer

  • BSí, es obligatorio.Yes, it is compulsory.
Explanation

Under the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), especially Article 117.1, all drivers and occupants of motor vehicles must wear approved seat belts, properly fastened, on any type of road, in or outside built-up areas. There is no specific exception for pregnant women; wearing a seat belt is compulsory for everyone travelling in the vehicle, unless the vehicle is not fitted with seat belts. So the correct answer is that a pregnant woman must wear a seat belt.
