Yes, fire extinguishers in vehicles are generally required to be securely mounted to ensure they are accessible in case of an emergency. This mounting helps prevent the extinguisher from becoming a projectile during sudden stops or accidents. However, specific regulations may vary by jurisdiction, so it's important to check local laws for any specific requirements.
