How should firearms be transported in a vehicle?

  1. Loaded and within the driver's reach

  2. Unloaded and locked in a gun case

  3. Hidden under the seat for easy access

  4. With the safety on

The correct answer is: Unloaded and locked in a gun case

Firearms should be transported in a vehicle unloaded and locked in a gun case. This method ensures that the firearm is not readily accessible and is safely secured during transportation, minimizing the risk of accidents or unauthorized use. Keeping firearms unloaded and stored in a locked case also helps to prevent theft and ensures compliance with transportation laws and regulations. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they all involve scenarios where the firearm is not properly secured or could easily be accessed, increasing the likelihood of accidents or misuse.
