I understand that, but unless you're driving in the UK, you have a door right there, and 8 o'clock is behind you, if you're seated in your car and you need your gun for...say a road rage incident, you would need to battle not only the seatbelt and your shirt, but your elbow crashing into the door.
I have seen left handed people in classes who don't have that problem. :headscratch I am not left handed, so :anamatedbanana
The door doesn't really interfere with my draw, and in a worse case scenario I could always draw with my right hand since the grip points to my right side. As with most left handers, I've learned to adapt and figure out the best methods to overcome a right handed world. On a positive note, I am becoming more comfortable carrying in public the more I do it. Also, the wife knows I have my CHL, but she doesn't know that I've been carrying at home and while we're out :evil2: so I must be concealing correctly. :woohoo

cool! maybe you've got more space in your car than I do in mine, I don't see how I could do it in mine, but I'm a righty so I don't have to worry about it. I do on my left, but it's as a cross-draw, at about 10:00, up front, not behind. so it's in front of the bulk of the seat and seat-belt.

Re: Driving While Carrying

I can't imagine trying to twist my arm around to that position in a car if it were needed...
