Note: The GA Court of Appeals ruled in (Hubbard v. State, 210 Ga. App. 141, 143-44 1993) that if you do
not have a permit/license honored in GA you can only carry a firearm in “Your Own Vehicle.” This means
you can carry in “Your Own Vehicle” without a permit/license but if you are riding in a vehicle that is not
yours you must have permission of the person who has legal control of the vehicle
