Correct answer

  • CTanto el delantero como los traseros.Both the front and the rear seats.
Explanation

What determines the use of a child restraint system and the rear seat is height, not age: the rule applies to children 135 cm tall or less (Article 117 of the General Traffic Regulations). At more than 150 cm, a 12-year-old child may sit in the front or the back using the seat belt.
