Explanation
Riding in the back of a pickup truck is legal if the vehicle is equipped with seats and the passenger is properly secured with a seat belt. This reduces the risk of being ejected in the event of an accident. Animals should not be transported in the back of a pickup or any other truck unless they are safely restrained.
