I usually see more people riding two up than 1 up out there.  I have not seen/heard any problems as of yet.  I personally have a two up quad so we have never had a problem.

State law is not clear as to if it is illegal to ride two up on a unit built for one person now or if this does not take effect until July 1, 2008, but definately after 7/1/8 you will not be allowed.

I have a 2-up also canam 800 so its not an issue with me...but it is one rule / law that I do like...now the machine size and age rule is about IG-NOR-ANT

I know what the fenders says on my 4 wheeler about riding double / Maybe the one making the laws should look at their cars owners manual I'm sure it says not to exceed 55 mph but I'm sure they do. My point, warnings are results of the company being sued they're covering there A@#. It shouldn't be forced down our throat in a law.  >:( Just another way the man doesn't want us in ocala

Prarie Master,  don't blame this one on the USFS.  This is a state law that goes in effect on July 1, 2008.  It has nothing to do with the USFS, it covers all public land in Florida

Another one of those laws that the USFS decides to use when it benefits them / Also I'm sure the USFS had nothing to do with  lobby pass this law. This state has gone nuts

Defensive GrizzlyBear - it seems prairie master is only asking questions? UHMMM who did make this law? Grizz you should know, I believe you sit on the committee, aren't they who made this law, or started this law, as a matter of fact started this whole procedure of getting everyone certified to ride for 75.00.
