In Kentucky, where must a person's firearm be during a traffic stop if they have a CCDW license?

  1. In plain view on the dashboard

  2. Concealed anywhere in the vehicle

  3. Notified to the officer immediately

  4. In the trunk of the vehicle

The correct answer is: Notified to the officer immediately

During a traffic stop in Kentucky, individuals with a CCDW license are required to promptly notify the law enforcement officer of the presence of a firearm in the vehicle. This notification is crucial as it ensures transparency and helps to prevent misunderstandings or escalation during the interaction. By informing the officer immediately about the firearm, the individual demonstrates responsibility and respect for the law, promoting a safer and smoother encounter for both parties. The other options are not correct because: A. Having the firearm in plain view on the dashboard may cause alarm or concern for the officer and is not a safe or recommended practice. B. While the firearm can be concealed in the vehicle, simply having it concealed without notifying the officer does not comply with Kentucky law for CCDW license holders. D. Placing the firearm in the trunk of the vehicle does not meet the requirement of immediate notification to the officer, which is necessary in this scenario.
