Yes I can back this up, im not very PC oriented, I will look up the codes and statutes it will take me a day or so, but I have looked all that I said up. The only exception to the loaded gun in a car is with a CCW. You can read the game laws on line. A police cannot write game law violations, but they can hold you until a Natural Resouce Police officer gets there. If someone wants to be a test case, lay your side arm on the dash pull up to a Game Warrden where he can see you weapon in deer season and watch what he does,LOL. Please dont try that!!!! Our game laws can get you in trouble if a LE wants to push an issue. But read up on game laws in WV and also go to Ask the Natural Resource Police, by reading how a game warrden interputs the law will give some insight to how a WV LEO's mind works.
