What is Delaware's law regarding firearms in vehicles?

  1. Firearms must be unloaded and locked in the trunk

  2. Firearms can be kept anywhere in the vehicle

  3. Only handguns are allowed in vehicles

  4. Firearms must be visible at all times

The correct answer is: Firearms must be unloaded and locked in the trunk

Delaware law stipulates that firearms must be unloaded and secured in a manner that prevents unauthorized access, which typically means they should be locked in the trunk of the vehicle. This regulation is intended to enhance safety, reducing the risk of accidents or misuse of firearms while traveling. By requiring firearms to be unloaded and stored appropriately, the law promotes responsible gun ownership and helps prevent situations where a firearm could inadvertently be accessed by someone who should not be handling it, such as children or unauthorized individuals. This legal requirement reflects a broader commitment to upholding public safety while still allowing individuals the right to transport firearms in a manner that minimizes potential risks associated with accidental discharge or theft.
