driving a “truck, while [victim] was hanging onto the side resisting the
theft, was an act of force intended, in part, to overcome resistance to the
taking.”); Lovett v. State,
781 So. 2d 466 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001) (finding
sufficient “violence” to affirm carjacking conviction where victim jumped
on car’s hood and defendant accelerated car while victim was on hood).
