The proposed legislation would prohibit the operator of a pickup truck from
allowing passengers to ride unrestrained in the bed of the pickup. Riders
would be similarly prohibited with certain exceptions for both operators and
drivers. Violation of this section would be an infraction. This restriction
would apply only to state highways and cities.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other
program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental
space.
