<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

This exposes the individual to danger. <em>Remember</em>, the Newton Law of motion which says that an object under the state of rest will remain in that state (inertia) unless when acted upon by an external force.

In this scenario, standing at the back of the pickup truck presents danger especially if the truck suddenly stops; this individual would experience an upward thrust due to inertia that may disbalance him.
