The law specifically prohibits CCW on a public bus last time I checked. It would be different on a private vehicle.
It needs to be stated that you don't use force to protect a vehicle. If your car is parked in your driveway and unoccupied then it is a simple burglary and not a lethal force situation if someone breaks in.
The law hinges on people "breaking in" to where you occupy space in an enclosure to include a vehicle to harm you. If a public bus stops and opens the doors and someone walks on, there is no "breaking in".
Also the law is primarly talking about force against humans not just firearms issues. The last time I rode a metro bus, which was also the first time I ever road a metro bus, a homeless guy and a mental health consumer woman had a shouting match where they called each other every name in the book, and threatened every violent act you could imagine.
Of course they were standing 15 feet apart and neither of them made any effort to close the distance. My teenage daughter was terrified. I was smiling as the first insult the woman offered was the guy's smell.
Rule #1 is leave people alone until you are truly physically threatened.
Does CART stand for Crazypeople All Require Transport?
