Some facts: The window one is most apt to have to shoot out of is on the left of the driver. The seat belt will interfere with any handgun holstered in any manner on the right side at the belt level. The steering wheel will interfere with any draw from the right side to point out the driver's window: ..... Therefore; it is best to have the handgun on the left hip/kidney in a reversed crossdraw position. It can be concealed by a jacket and still be readily accessible. The handgun should be drawn by the right hand and raised enough for the left hand to come under the right arm to release the seat belt making possible further maneuvering as necessary. Yes, there are among us those that are left handed. They should be accomplished in shooting right hand at least for close shots. As, the right handed person should be accomplished at shooting left handed at close range.
The drill is slightly different for the person who must carry on the right side at belt level but is easily figured out by sitting in a vehicle and thinking thru the process of presentation. A handgun carried in an under the left arm position is no problem. The handgun carried in an under the right arm shoulder holster is all but useless in a vehicle emergency. I knew a lefty Detective that carried a double gun shoulder holster rig. The handgun under his left arm was his BUG. I thought that made a very nice workable solution to the whole problem. .....
