Does KRS 527.020 provide protection in the storage compartment under the seat of my sport bike?
KRS 527.020 paragraph (8)
(8) A firearm or other deadly weapon shall not be deemed concealed on or about the person if it is located in a glove compartment, regularly installed in a motor vehicle by its manufacturer, regardless of whether said compartment is locked, unlocked, or does not have a locking mechanism. No person or organization, public or private, shall prohibit a person from keeping a firearm or ammunition, or both, or other deadly weapon in a glove compartment of a vehicle in accordance with the provisions of this subsection. Any attempt by a person or organization, public or private, to violate the provisions of this subsection may be the subject of an action for appropriate relief or for damages in a Circuit Court or District Court of competent jurisdiction.
It is the only compartment in my bike, it is OEM and it is where I put my gloves so.....
I know that the Kentucky Supreme Court made a ruling that the compartment had to be in the dash, thereby eliminating the center console in a car as legal.
But what if there isn't a compartment in the dash?
