Correct answer
- BEn el asiento trasero central, ya que sufre menos por los impactos laterales.In the middle back seat, because it is less affected by side impacts.
Explanation
Article 117.3 of the General Traffic Regulations requires children shorter than 135 cm to travel in the back in a suitable child restraint system. Of the back seats, the middle seat is the best protected, because it is further from the doors and from the impact zone in a side collision.
