How should firearms be transported in a vehicle?

  1. Loaded and within the driver's reach

  2. Unloaded and locked in the vehicle's trunk

  3. Unloaded but with the safety off

  4. Loaded but in a gun case

The correct answer is: Unloaded and locked in the vehicle's trunk

Firearms should always be transported unloaded and locked in a vehicle's trunk. Option A is incorrect because keeping a firearm loaded and within the driver's reach can be dangerous and may lead to unintentional discharge. Option C is incorrect because it is still risky to have an unloaded firearm with the safety off. Option D is also incorrect because although the firearm is in a gun case, it is still loaded and easily accessible. It is important to transport firearms safely and responsibly to prevent accidents and harm.
