How to unlock the Drive-By achievement in Far Cry 4 - Definitive Guide
First thing you want to do is get yourself a secondary weapon - I simply used the Skorpion as it was unlocked early and an automatic. Now unlock the 2nd base Khilana Bazaar which should happen very early on in the game.
Once unlocked, head east up the hill from your spawn to find a Buzzer - coordinates: X: 305.2 | Y: 423.3. Now simply fly around the island killing the enemy AI. You can also unlock the M-79 sidearm from a Fashion Week Challenge which is located at the Kyra Tea Weigh Station - coordinated: X: 344.8 | Y: 379.0 - and use this for quicker kills.
The grenade launcher is picked up when doing the mini missions to protect an ammo truck heading to a rebel stronghold, so you should get it fairly early on.
I flew over an outpost at high altitude, stopped and used the grenade launcher to kill enemies, allowing reinforcements to come and killing them too. The grenade launcher has high splash damage and takes out trucks, so it's pretty simple. :)
Took me 10 mins to kill off all the enemies via 2 outposts.
(that't how I did it too)
Grab the M79. It’s a grenade launcher that counts as a sidearm, so you can fire it from the buzzard.
Fly around, following the roads, and take pop shots at any vehicles you pass. They normally have two enemies in each and two grenades will completely blow the vehicle and anything else within range. Chances of being shot dead are slimmer too.
For this trophy, you need to simply shoot enemies while you are in a vehicle. It says you need to be "shooting and driving" but this just refers to you needing to be in the drivers seat and not on a mounted turret. The best way to do this is to simply drive around on a quad bike, and shoot any enemy you see. There's usually a fair few karma events going on, or random enemies driving around so this won't take you long. Enemies can be found near Bell Towers (that you haven't captured) as well. They are easy to kill as there isn't much cover near Bell Towers You can also drive into outposts and just sit in the car and shoot all the enemies from there. To shoot while you are driving, press to aim and to shoot. If you are on the "Classic" control scheme though it is simply to shoot. You cannot aim while in this control scheme, but the game will auto aim for you so it is easy enough to get kills. Once you have killed 25 enemies whilst you are in the drivers seat, then the trophy will unlock.
Killings not only from wheeled vehicles such as trucks, cars and ATVs are protected, as well as killings from water transport or a helicopter.
It doesn’t matter what you kill with, from a firearm, or by throwing a throwing knife, a grenade, or a Molotov cocktail. Try to kill from a vehicle as soon as you are out of harm’s way. I drove my car straight into outposts during the assault and knocked enemies out of the car window.

You can miss the achievement if you don’t pay attention to it. Because... in a wheelbarrow, quad bike, helicopter, etc., it’s often easier to get away from the enemy than to get involved in a fight.
