Because many people believe the purpose and intent of the law is for people to be able to carry when traveling, and not be carrying when not traveling. If they had wanted people to carry all the time in their vehicle, they would have removed the traveling portion. I myself am starting to see Charles's point, but I do not want to be the first guinnea pig to test it.
