The correct answer is: Yes, but only concealed with a permit

Transporting a loaded firearm in a vehicle is only legal in South Dakota if it is concealed and the person has a permit. Option C is incorrect because there are certain restrictions for transporting a loaded firearm, which includes having a concealed carry permit. Option D is incorrect because the firearm must be unloaded and locked away, rather than just unloaded. Option A is incorrect because even though the firearm must be in plain view, it must also be unloaded and locked away. Option B is the best choice because it specifies the requirement of having a permit for concealed carry of a loaded firearm in a vehicle in South Dakota.
