Correct answer

  • CNo, ya que se supera el número de plazas autorizadas del vehículo.No, because it exceeds the vehicle's authorised number of seats.
Explanation

The number of people carried may not exceed the vehicle's authorised number of seats, and children also take up a seat. Five adults and a child in a five-seat car exceed that number, even if the child is in the care of an adult.
