Riyadh: In Saudi Arabia, the traffic department has reiterated that the driver will be fined if children sit in the front seat of the vehicle. Even if a child is sitting in the front seat of the vehicle while being picked up by an adult, it will be considered a violation. Children should be seated in their designated seats.
Do not seat children in the front seat, regardless of who is with them. This restriction is for the safety of children. The traffic department also said that if the child needs someone to accompany them, they can sit in the designated seat at the back and then use the seat next to them.
