Know the no-go zones

A license does not authorize carry into (s. 790.06(12)):

• Police, sheriff or highway patrol stations; jails and prisons
• Courthouses and courtrooms (judges excepted)
• Polling places
• Meetings of a county, school district, municipality or special district governing body, or of the Legislature
• School, college or professional athletic events not related to firearms
• Elementary/secondary school facilities or administration buildings; career centers
• The portion of an establishment licensed to serve alcohol on premises that is primarily devoted to that purpose
• College or university facilities (limited non-lethal exception)
• Airport passenger terminals and sterile areas (encased firearms for checked baggage allowed)
• Places of nuisance, and anywhere federal law prohibits firearms

You may carry or store a firearm in a vehicle for lawful purposes, and licensees may carry on religious institution property subject to its property rights (s. 790.06(12)(b), (13)). Knowing violations are a second-degree misdemeanor.
