A motor vehicle—whether you own or otherwise lawfully have control of it—in a public place is not an extension of your home. Some of the differences are
- You cannot be intoxicated, drink, or possess an open container of an alcoholic beverage in a motor vehicle.
- You cannot be naked in a motor vehicle.
- You cannot have a handgun in public view in a motor vehicle.
- The police can remove you from your motor vehicle and search it without a warrant.
- The police can arrest you for any number of picayune offenses of the transportation code (such as expired registration) which in no way apply to a fixed residence.
- You must produce a driver license and proof of insurance when stopped in a motor vehicle.
- Motor vehicles on private property are subject to trespass laws—whether that property is generally open to the public or not.
- The Federal "gun free school zone" law prohibits carrying loaded firearms in a motor vehicle by a person who does not have a CHL from the same state. This law specifically does not apply to residences within the school zone.
- In many municipalities it is illegal to sleep in a motor vehicle parked in a public place.
- The Motorist Protection Act allows a person who does not have a CHL to possess a concealed handgun in a motor vehicle.
- The Castle Doctrine creates a presumption of reasonableness if you use deadly force against someone attempting to enter or remove you by force from your motor vehicle.
All of the above discussion is not relevant to an RV that is stationary and being used as a residence.
