I agree with you. If I’m a cop and I see a gun on the floor, which I believe it is not supposed to be, I’m going to be a little antsy. In my state even with CCW permit you are not allowed to display the weapon, even on your car seat.
I’ll probably get cursed for this, but, based on the amount of thuggery going on out there, if I were a cop I’d prefer to be safe than sorry.
Not all cops are bad. If you go by the videos that are flooding the internet you’d think we were living in a police state. I say, not yet we’re not.
I know a few cops here in town. They are level headed, won’t stop anyone unless they are just being plain stupid and reckless and causing possible harm to others. They won’t write you a ticket for going 10 miles over because they know that, in most cases, you’re talking half a weeks pay to cover the cost.
They are also for CCW.

Would you consider the same thing if you were to see a firearm laying on the floor of someone’s home?
New Mexico law considers the vehicle as an “extended domicile,” that is to say that legally it *IS* the same as your home.
>I say, not yet we’re not.
And yet rulings like this; and the Indiana Supreme Court one recently (wherein that court found that the right to resist an unlawful police entry was “no longer recognized”) are precisely what will cause a police-state.
