    Is it illegal to have alcohol under a backseat? Is it evidence of anything except having alcohol under a seat?

    Drink driving bad. Alcoholic abuse/dependence a serious problem.

    But gaslight/gatekeep/girl boss. You’re not getting fired for the gin that you keep for camping trips. That would be crazy.

          Where I live specifies trunk or locked glovebox only, but yes, booze in the car is legal in those instances.

        Previously opened containers of alcohol (gin w screw top bottle, recorked wine,etc) are legal but must be carried in the trunk or locked glovebox.

        Those are the rules in Texas. Other states vary in specifics but the general sentiment is usually the same.

        Technically OP is breaking the laws of the state I live in by having a bottle of alcohol under the seat as opposed to a trunk but it’s very much legal to carry one.
