Does carrying a child count as overloading?
1 Answers
Carrying one extra child is considered overloading. Here is the relevant information: 1. The traffic regulations regarding "overcrowding" do not specify the height, weight, or age of passengers, but only the "number." Therefore, in a car with a capacity of 5 people, having one extra child (even an infant held in the arms of a parent) is considered overcrowding. 2. Overcrowding does not differentiate between adults and children; as long as they are born, they count as one member. In a five-seat car, even if it's children, only five people can be seated. For example, if there are three adults in a five-seat car and three children, it is considered overcrowding, including those held in arms, because current laws require children to use safety seats.
