I took mine right off of www.handgunlaw.us

I forgot the #10 part only. Either way(as it seems I might have made a mistake on that one), I know of no law in Virginia which states that the glovebox needs to be locked...or the trunk...or the console. the terminology 'locked' is always added if that is what they want. I am not a lawyer, but secured his gun was in my opinion. The law stated above should protect him and I do not think he should accept anything besides a not guilty verdict. I do not think they would go to trial on this one, and the OP has that right as a defendant.
