We would like to remind you once again that special attention must be paid to the transportation of child passengers. Often, parents do not think much about the consequences of improper transportation and do not pay enough attention. However, children in a car involuntarily become hostages of a particular road situation. That is why it is best to transport young passengers in child restraint systems. Minors under the age of 12 are allowed to be transported only in the rear seat of a car, with mandatory use of seat belts.
In accordance with paragraph 178 of the Traffic Rules of the Republic of Belarus, the transportation of children in a passenger car equipped with seat belts must be carried out using: child restraint systems that correspond to the child's weight and height - for children up to five years of age; child restraint systems that correspond to the child's weight and height, or other devices (boosters, special seat cushions, additional seats) that allow the child to be safely fastened with seat belts provided by the vehicle's design - for children from five to twelve years of age.
It is permitted to transport children under twelve years of age without using the devices specified in the first part of this paragraph if the child's height exceeds 150 centimeters, as well as in a taxi.
It is forbidden to transport children in the front seat of a passenger car using child restraint systems that correspond to the child's weight and height, the back of which is turned towards the
to the vehicle's windshield, if the front seat is equipped with an airbag, unless the frontal airbag system is deactivated.
Therefore, it is extremely important for every adult transporting children to remember one simple truth: "There are no other people's children!"
