Nowadays, roads are built very spacious, and there are also many families who own cars. In the process of travel, cars can bring great convenience to people, especially during holidays when the whole family goes out to play in the car, which is very comfortable. So how many older children are considered overloaded?
1. According to national regulations, the number of passengers on a vehicle is based on the approved number of passengers on the driving license. There are no detailed regulations on the age, height, and weight of passengers, but rather the specified number of passengers. Therefore, as long as the number exceeds the specified limit, it is considered overloaded, whether it is a child who can already walk or someone holding their parents' arms.
2. Because in the determination process of some traffic accidents, the police only count the number of people, regardless of the age and other factors of the passengers. Nowadays, the punishment for overloading is also very strict. If there is an extra person, even a child, it will be counted as overloading and will be fined and deducted points.
3. Many parents hold their children on their bodies while riding in the car. If they are involved in an accident, the injuries suffered by these children will be even more severe because the child blocking in front of their parents is like an airbag. So it is necessary to strictly prohibit overloading behavior. Parents should place their children in dedicated child seats and help them fasten their seat belts.
