How should firearms be transported in a vehicle?

Loaded and within reach for easy access
Unloaded and locked in the vehicle's trunk
With the safety on, in the backseat
Loaded but with the safety catch engaged

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

Firearms should always be transported unloaded and in a locked container, such as the vehicle's trunk. Keeping firearms unloaded helps prevent accidental discharges and transporting them in a locked container ensures they are not easily accessible to those who should not have access to them. Option A is incorrect because keeping firearms loaded and within reach can be dangerous and even illegal in some states. Option C is incorrect because simply putting the safety on does not guarantee the firearm will not accidentally discharge. Option D is incorrect because firearms should always be unloaded during transportation, regardless of the safety catch being engaged.
