Correct answer

  • ASobre la clavícula, un hueso en la parte más alta de las costillas, y por el centro del pecho.Over the collarbone, a bone at the very top of the ribs, and across the middle of the chest.
Explanation

The diagonal strap of the seat belt must cross the collarbone and the middle of the chest, without resting on the neck or slipping towards the arm. The strap across the pelvis, below the abdomen, is the lower or lap strap, not the chest strap.
