Correct answer

  • ASí, ya que es obligatorio.Yes, because it is compulsory.
Explanation

The seat belt is compulsory for all occupants, front and rear, even if the vehicle has an airbag. The airbag complements the seat belt and does not replace it; also, a rear passenger without a seat belt can hit those in front with great force.
