Guns are plot items. Every gun rule is thrown out the window if it interferes with the plot. Same can be said about cars and the human body.

Warning: TVTropes link. Look for "Averted in."

An exception to this is the movie Cop Land. It comes into play as part of the plot though. Outside of this, I dont think I've seen another example.

Is it "rule of cool" (crawling around on the floor clutching your ears...isn't), or just that Hollywood scriptwriters haven't shot a gun in their lives?

Yes.

It's the same for portraying the effects of being shot. I always shake my head a little when the hero is shot on the arm or leg, or anywhere really, and apart from a short "argh!!" and clutch of the wound....continue to fight on with full strength.

There was one episode of Criminal Minds I distinctly remember because it touched on this issue. One of them had an assault rifle in an SUV and another character basically says something along the lines of don't fire that weapon in here. Only time I've ever seen a TV show anknowledge the issue of firing a weapon inside a car.
