One thing I am not sure about is how far from your vehicle you must be. I believe that is a federal firearms requirement and not in the hunting regulations. Something worth looking up.
Did some quick searching,the only thing I can find is that you cannot be touching the truck, unless hunting antelope , when hunting antelope you must be 50 yards away.
“not discharging a firearm while in or on any motorized land vehicle or
trailer" is another line I found. So by the looks of things as long as I’m not touching the truck I will be okay. I’ll make sure to make my way into the ditch before I begin shooting just incase I can’t be on the gravel road. Better safe then sorry I guess.
