You can have a fully loaded handgun (full magazine and one in the chamber) either in the open or concealed in your car and you are not required to inform police unless asked directly if there is a firearm in the vehicle. Long guns (rifles and shotguns) are able to have a full magazine, but nothing can be in the chamber. I do believe the laws are under C.R. 18.204 I forget the subsection, but opencarry.org also has great links.

Can you get arrested in the state of California if there is a gun in a car that you are a passanger in that u didn't know about?
Yes, not knowing is not a legal defense. The law will treat you as an accessory. Here is an example; Let's say your friend goes into a store and robs it. You are sitting in the car and have no idea what this person is doing. He uses a gun which makes it a armed robbery. After he gets into the car he tells you what he has done. Unless you get out of the car and call the police you are an accessory to the crime that was committed. You will get jail time as well for just being there. Not knowing that there was a gun in the car is about the same thing. It is illegal to drive in CA with a gun that is not in a locked gun case, unloaded, and in the trunk of the car. The person would need a concealed weapons license for it to be legal.
