Before moving, check every passenger’s seat belt, including those in the back. Make sure the buckle is fastened and the belt is not twisted. Children need seating suited to their age and size.

Indonesia’s traffic police warn that an unbelted rear passenger can be thrown forward during sudden braking or a collision, putting people in front at risk. Cabin safety is a shared responsibility.

When choosing a rental car, ask about usable belted seats and raise child-seat needs before booking. Do not exceed the available seating capacity.
