Is it illegal to ride in the back which truck in Florida?

In Florida, it is generally illegal for individuals under 18 to ride in the open bed of a pickup truck on public roads. However, exceptions exist, such as when the truck is being used for agricultural purposes or if the passengers are secured by a safety harness. Additionally, adults riding in the back may face safety risks, but there is no statewide law prohibiting it. Always check local regulations, as they may vary.
