Explanation
In Florida, all drivers, front-seat passengers, and passengers under 18 are required to wear seat belts. However, Florida law exempts certain individuals and vehicles from this requirement, including:
- Individuals with a medical condition certified by a physician that makes seat belt use unsafe or inappropriate (a copy of the certification must be carried while driving or riding).
- Passengers in buses used for paid transportation.
- School buses purchased before December 31, 2000.
- Newspaper delivery employees while delivering newspapers.
- Operators of farm equipment.
- Trucks with a net weight of more than 26,000 pounds.
Additionally, children ages 4–5 may use only a seat belt (without a booster seat) when being transported by someone who is not an immediate family member and only as a favor or in an emergency.
