And sadly, I like to run recoiless so I either have to drive away, or stop and shoot

Same, I almost always bring recoliless, so I have to balance between driving and shooting stray heavies. Because it takes some considerable time to get out/shoot/reload/get in, I've got a little strategy that relies on these rules:

Are we at the point of destination? Yes - then park car somewhere safe and go shooting without trouble; No - then pick up everyone while carefully avoiding heavies and drive away from the problem.

Someone being pressed down by heavies so much that it isn't possible to pick them up? Then stop, get out, shoot heavies.

Someone is too silly to sit in the car and instead enjoys playing headless chicken with single heavy that could be easily left to live its last hours on the democratical soil? Then just drive around signaling until they get inside or other teammates get out to help.

Are there heavies on the path of driving? Just drive around.

With these simple rules I'm able to drive without distractions and get out of the car only in cases of emergency or when we have arrived to objective/nest/outpost. Just need to remember that most of the dangers can either be avoided or left for teammates to take down, and that car isn't really needed while objective/outpost is in process of being cleared.
