Correct answer

  • BSí, si mide más de 1,35 m.Yes, if they are taller than 1.35 m.
Explanation

What counts is height, not age. Under article 117 of the General Traffic Regulations, a child taller than 135 cm may travel in the front with the seat belt; a child 135 cm tall or less travels in the back in a child restraint system, with some exceptions.
