What is true about shooting across or on a public highway in New Hampshire?

  1. It is always legal

  2. It is legal during hunting season

  3. It is prohibited

  4. It is only legal with a special permit

The correct answer is: It is prohibited

Shooting across or on a public highway in New Hampshire is prohibited. This law is in place to ensure the safety of the public and prevent accidents or injuries that could occur from shooting firearms in close proximity to roadways. It is important for gun owners to always be aware of their surroundings and follow the regulations set forth by the state to prevent any mishaps or legal consequences. Option A is incorrect because it is not always legal to shoot across or on a public highway in New Hampshire. Option B is misleading because hunting season does not change the fact that shooting across or on a public highway is prohibited. Option D is also incorrect as a special permit does not make shooting in such locations legal in the state.
