Can I come out to Washington, set up a scenario where both you and the car are jinking about, and see you hit the driver using your weak hand?
Has evidence been introduced that the poster shoots pistols right handed?
I'd like to offer an opposing opinion here. I think the very concept of training to shoot while moving on a motor vehicle that requires 4 working limbs to successfully operate is a little futile. Even ifyou are not concealing, you will still have toconduct a draw and present at an angle you are probably not accustomed to, while maintaining balance and depending on the circumstances, possibly avoiding other traffic.
In the time it would take you to decide to draw, start the draw and get your hand to the gun, you could juke, downshift and apply an abundance of throttle producing acceleration that no 4 wheel land vehicle can match... [a good superbike class motorcycle is capable of 0-100 mph in 5.5 seconds with an average or beginning rider, faster with skill.] Ok - some slower bikeswon't qualify but a motorcycle's acceleration & agility are it's strengths and operating one usingneithercapability is not using the vehicle efficiently.
Think about how well you operate a vehicle while yakking on a cell phone. No matter how good you think you are, every study conducted shows that distriction to be on par with driving under the influence of alcohol past the legal limit. At least every study I've seen, or heard of.
Now, what if you're wearing gloves, and you fumble the gun and drop it?
All of that said... I have actually shot with my full moto gear on - suit, helmet, glasses, racing gloves, boots and all. I was toasty, but at least I could manipulate the guns w/o difficulty. I would venture to say I would not be able to do this on a moving motorcycle without a deliberate, intentional "act" requiring intense concentration. The kind that commonwealths attorneys like to call badthings. Even so, at least I could find a small area of cover I could kneel behind on a stopped bike.
