Def should have been more than a warning. Have heard of a similar situation.
Mates pulled over in the middle of the night for crossing centreline, cop thought he'd been drinking. Shone torch round his truck and saw a bong, rifles had bolts out but tube magazine was still loaded and a magazine in glove box was loaded.
Driver wasn't under the influence and bong hadn't been used at all but it was still there
He lost his firearms for 6months. Didn't end up in court but bloody lucky.
As for secured.... What the hell is that? When driving mine are usually in a bag or hard case but not locked. If I'm leaving the vehicle (keeping it withen sight) I will lock case and cover with something and take bolts with me and of course lock the car
