What is Tennessee's requirement regarding firearms in vehicles?

Firearms must be unloaded and stored in the trunk
Firearms may be carried in vehicles without a permit if they are not loaded
Firearms may be carried in vehicles without a permit as long as they are not on the person
There are no specific requirements; the same laws apply as carrying on person

The correct answer is: Firearms may be carried in vehicles without a permit as long as they are not on the person

In Tennessee, individuals are allowed to carry firearms in vehicles without a permit when the firearms are not on their person. This means that the firearm can be store within the vehicle, and it does not need to be unloaded. This option reflects the state's approach to personal carry rights while still upholding safety measures regarding the transportation of firearms. Other options have certain stipulations that do not align with Tennessee law. For instance, stating that firearms must be unloaded and stored in the trunk imposes restrictions that are not part of the state's requirements. Similarly, saying firearms may only be carried if they are unloaded also does not match the state's laws. Lastly, indicating that there are no specific requirements overlooks the allowance for carrying firearms in a vehicle without being on the person at all times if one is not required to have a permit.
