Correct answer
- ANi muy flojo ni muy apretado, con unos tres dedos de holgura entre el cinturón y el abdomen.Neither too loose nor too tight, with about three fingers of space between the belt and the abdomen.
Explanation
The seat belt must fit closely to the body, without large slack that would delay restraint in a crash, but not so tight that it is uncomfortable or stops you from moving normally. Wearing it very loose reduces its effectiveness, including for the driver.
