The correct answer is: Consuming any amount of alcohol while carrying is prohibited

Carrying a concealed handgun while consuming any amount of alcohol is prohibited in North Carolina, regardless of who is driving or where the alcohol consumption is taking place.

Option C is incorrect because the law does not specify whether or not the individual carrying the concealed handgun is the one driving.
