Carry in Ohio soon?

[mrjarrell]

if I have my gun on my hip and im driving to Ky but cross into ohio to cross the river into ky. Do I need to stop at the board and move my gun to the trunk unloaded or what? Im unsure.

As the others have said, yep. But! There is an alternative, (one that doesn't require a license from another state or disarming) to all that. If you're traveling east on 74, heading to 275, you can take exit 1 and go straight to KY without ever going into Ohio. It's a nice scenic route and avoids Ohio.

Then state hwy 1 (exit one) is your best bet. You get to go straight from IN to KY! You get on 275 right by the casinos.

Just watch your speed. In the spirit of Revenue Enhancement, much of Hwy 1 is 45mph. The cops patrol it pretty heavy.

I travel the exact opposite when I go to Ohio for work. It's better than driving through Cincy traffic.

But yeah, watch your speed through there. The cops get a little ambitious....

You are correct about the highway but not the exit number. Exit 1 is in Ohio which is the Harrison, Ohio exit. Highway 1 exit number will be in the 155-162 mile marker range.

Indiana State Highway 1 (the St Leon exit)... not Exit 1 (which is in Ohio)... to I-275 South.

I usually go down Hwy-101 to Hwy-50 to I-275.

Here is a recent USAToday article from March 6 you may find interesting. Talks about law changes in the works in 12 states ( includes Ohio).

12 states on path to guns with no permits

That would be swell!

Lots of handgun bills running through their legislature:
Laws, Acts, and Legislation

I didn't see anything that would change their requirements for reciprocity, though.
See Lawriter - ORC - 109.69 Reciprocity agreement.

They only recognize other state's licenses/permits that have requirements "substantially comparable" to their own. They require both training and a photo for the permit in order to exercise their rights.

@eldirector....you said "They require both training and a photo for the permit in order to exercise their rights." Ohio recognizes Arizona's CCW and there is not a picture required on an AZ permit.
