As usual the mis-information runs wild. Some have stated the law correctly and some are so far off its scary.
Law states, enclosed container,( glove box, center console, tubber ware container on the seat). THE MAIN THING TO FOLLOW IS, THE ABOVE ITEMS MUST BE CLOSED. If the glove box or console is open and the gun can be seen and touched WITHOUT OPENING THE STOREAGE AREA you are in violation of the law and will be arrested.
THERE IS NO SUCH 2 OR 3 STEP METHOD IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA. PERIOD The is also no such law about holsters being required for auto transport.
If anyone wants to disagree you can proceed to the following web site run by Jon H. Gutmacher, Esq. www.floridafirearmslaw.com and proceed to page 83,84
