Correct answer

  • Bsobre el cuello o sobre un pecho.over the neck or over a breast.
Explanation

The chest strap must pass over the collarbone, between the shoulder and the neck, and go down across the middle of the chest. If it is placed over the neck or over a breast, it can cause serious injuries in an accident; over the shoulder it may slip and give less protection, but the correct position is over the collarbone.
