Correct answer
- CEstá prohibido, porque reduce la eficacia del cinturón.Is prohibited, because it makes the seat belt less effective.
Explanation
Clips that stop the seat belt from retracting leave the strap slack, so in a crash the body moves forward before it is held. The seat belt must fit closely to the body; wearing it incorrectly counts as not using it properly and is penalised.
