What it is aboutAge in years(jaar)Where it goes wrong
Age above which the child seat is no longer required18Thinking a tall 12-year-old still needs a seat. Either condition being met is enough.
Age below which you carry nobody without belt or seat3Thinking a short trip is an exception. There is none.
Age from which a bus passenger must wear the belt3Thinking a bus has no belt requirement at all.
Age from which someone may ride on the luggage carrier8Reading the exception for snorfiets riders too. They are precisely excluded.
