Can I drive at night while the children are sleeping?


The Portugal highway code requires all passengers in an RV (or car) to fasten their seat belts while the vehicle is moving.

A violation will earn you a fine.

The number of passengers inside a vehicle must not exceed the number of seat belts.

It is therefore prohibited by law to allow children to sleep in a bed in your rental RV while driving at night (or during the day), as they will not be wearing seat belts.

It is also a question of common sense. An accident can happen at any time. Do you really want to run the risk of losing someone you love just because they weren't wearing a seat belt?

Wearing a seat belt is the best protection for all vehicle occupants.
