Correct answer

  • BNo, porque reduce la eficacia del cinturón.No, because they reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt.
Explanation

Clips loosen the seat belt and leave it slack, so in a collision it does not hold the body back in time and is less effective. The seat belt must be worn properly fastened and tight against the body on any type of road and journey.
