If you’ve got anyone chasing you in GTA 5, it can be tough to lose them. Shooting while driving will help you take enemies out, but the button you need to press will depend on your console.
To shoot your weapon while driving in GTA 5, you need to both aim and fire your weapon by:
  • Pressing L1 to aim and R1 to shoot on Playstation 4.
  • Pressing LB to aim and RB to shoot on Xbox One.
Aiming and shooting
while also driving
can be difficult, but luckily Rockstar included an alternative. If you change the settings so that L1 or LB both aims and shoots for you, it might make things easier.
While you’re aiming and shooting, be careful to keep your eyes on the road. Shooting your enemies isn’t going to be all that helpful if you end up in a major
car crash
.
While your real-life car isn’t as likely to be destroyed as your GTA 5 car is, it’s still a good idea to revisit your coverage. With
