when i was 20 I had built a dump truck and carried my 20 gauge in the back window. I was stopped by FL. DOT for a full mechanical and weights and measures inspection. The officer actually tried to tell me "NO FIREARMS ALLOWED IN ANY COMMERCIAL VEHICLE UNDER DOT JURISDICTION" In my most brazen young tuff guy way I simply said... "Don't cite it... WRITE IT!" meaning a ticket or charge and then he went on to tell me it wasn't "SAFE"...
This was just as the CDL was being created so the rules were much easier for me to understand.
