Road beer or no? Trooper Steve explains open container law for RVs Driver, front passenger cannot, according to Florida statute Updated: Tags: Ask Trooper Steve: Open container of alcohol in an RV?

A lot of people were quick to answer this question for me before I could even provide the correct answer. When reading Florida law, you must make sure to read a statute in its entirety before really knowing what’s going on. A lot of people like to read a title and then assume what the law is. I refer to these types as, “Google Attorneys.”
