Can you get in trouble for open container if it's in the trunk, outside of the passenger compartment of a sedan? Container in question would be a half-empty bottle of liquor, capped of course. |
$125 a pop. But it was easy to tell these hadn't been picked up on the side of the road, but rather, had recently been 'used'.  |

"Passenger area" means the area designed to seat the driver and passengers while a motor vehicle is in operation and any area that is readily accessible to the driver or passenger while in his or her seating position; provided, however, that such term does not include any locked glove compartment or, in a passenger car not equipped with a trunk, any area behind the rearmost upright seat or not normally occupied by the driver or passengers. GCA 40-6-253 (3) Damn, Nexus is down and I couldn't cut and paste that.
