    No wonder I couldn't find the answer I was looking for this morning. I bet she had it on her truck.. Never made it to the internet.

    Pretty easily. 9mm, .380, 22mag, 5.7, 38 special ect will pass through a car or truck door no issue in 9 cases out of 10 and all have fairly low recoil and thats assumeing the dude didnt use something like an uzi type weapon or pistol grip rifle which will have even lower recoil. Both vehicles driving at roughly the same speed means there will be minimal drift to the bullet as there simply wont be enough time over the 10-20 feet it had to travel and unless you were going over a colorado potholeway bumps likely wouldnt add much either.

    Further a Toyota camery will be about level with the bottom 1/3rd of the door where your leg is going to be Regardless of if your a passenger or driver. Though if a passenger did it. He would likely aim for her torso. Ladys are usually smaller and shorter then men so good chance her legs were roughly center mass in the door with how she would likely have the seat and wheel set. Shoot middle of the door 2 or 3 times and there is a pretty good chance to get her in the leg especially if one is up on the pedal as your going to have a much wider profile to hit.

    Not hard to understand how she got shot even moving.

    And I thought as long as you're wearing your safety vest behind the wheel at 65mph you're exempt from danger.

    If you're doing the safety dance while wearing a safety vest , well you're untouchable.

    I'll stop making fun of Memphis, when it stops giving me reasons to make fun of it. ;)
