The most common hunting accident involves a loaded shotgun in a vehicle. Usually, the dingbat grabs the loaded shotgun by the muzzle and pulls the shotgun toward the himself or shoots someone in the front seat while trying to get out of the back seat with the loaded shotgun.

Prohibiting loaded shotguns in vehicles is a safety measure as well as an attempt to prevent road hunting.
