The fact that a select few douchbags use vehicles as rests while engaging in illegal hunting, for which the Law you quote was writen for, shouldn't affect those of us NOT illegally hunting... That I do know.

I believe THAT is the message that some members here are trying to convey.

It's not just about illegal hunting, it's also about safety. I personally know of two accidents resulting from loaded firearms going off in motor vehicles, as well as a fatal accident that resulted from a child sticking his head out of a car window, as another person was shooting over the roof at ground squirrels. The fact is that shooting off of a motor vehicle is illegal, no matter how you attempt to justify it.
