In New Mexico, under what condition is it legal to shoot across a public road?

  1. When hunting

  2. Never

  3. During designated shooting events

  4. If the road is temporarily closed

The correct answer is: Never

Shooting across a public road is a dangerous and potentially illegal action. New Mexico has strict laws regarding this issue in order to protect public safety. Option A, hunting, may be a common activity in New Mexico, but it is not a valid excuse for shooting across a public road. Option C, designated shooting events, also does not give permission to shoot across a public road as these events are typically held in a designated area away from public roads. Option D, while it may seem like a valid excuse, does not make it automatically legal to shoot across a public road. In any situation, it is important to prioritize safety and ensure that all laws and regulations are being properly followed.
