Yes.
In most states the laws state that any person on any highway, road or street in this state shall wear a safety belt if one is available for his seating position. What that means is that if you're on a public road you must wear the seat belt if the vehicle manufacturer provided one with the original vehicle design. You may not remove a manufacturer mounted seat belt to circumvent the law. If you are operating the truck on a farm, construction site, or other private road OSHA regulations or company policy must be fallowed in work situations.
