Which of the following locations is a person with a Wear and Carry Permit prohibited from carrying a firearm in Maryland?

  1. State parks

  2. Bars and restaurants

  3. Schools

  4. Private vehicles

The correct answer is: Schools

A person with a Wear and Carry Permit in Maryland is prohibited from carrying a firearm in schools. This restriction is in place because of the significant public safety concerns associated with firearms in educational environments. Schools are considered sensitive areas where the presence of firearms could pose a risk to students, teachers, and staff. While the other locations listed may have specific regulations or nuances regarding firearm carry, schools are explicitly mentioned in state law as prohibited areas for anyone carrying a firearm, regardless of the type of permit they hold.
