    That*s why you always print or make another copy of each card and put them on your sun visor.

    Only thing bad about just sitting on the seat, is during a bump & rob or even an evasive maneuver or panic stop, that firearm is flying right off the seat onto the floor or under the seat.

    With it being summer I have been carrying a Glock 43 in my shorts pocket. But while driving it is useless, almost impossible for me to get to in a hurry. And with all of the car jacking and other violence, I have been using a small owb holster and making sure my T shirt and seat belt don’t cover it.

    Interesting thoughts. I'll have to conduct some tests.

    I don't think a bumpy road is a safety issue for nearly any modern firearm in a decent holster. I think the bigger concern is handling the firearm every time you enter or exit the vehicle.
    I know a lot of people don't like pocket carry (in a pocket holster) but this is one of those times when pocket carry excels. The gun usually stays in the holster, with trigger covered, when removing it from your body or putting it on your body.

    Thank you for the inputs. Sounds like it won't be much of a problem.

    Additional car mount is my best option considering driving comfort and quick access. LTCF in hand, really isn't concerned about police seeing it.

    PA doesn't have a "brandishing law", but we do have Terroristic Threats.

    To brandish a gun, you must INTENTIONALLY display the gun in a threatening or menacing manner. Just merely having a gun around you is not brandishing. If it were, then anybody that carries openly, including cops and security officers, would be guilty of Terroristic Threats.
