Flashlight action activated in car mount

I keep my X on my car's dashboard in landscape mode in a bracket. Today I hit a rough railroad crossing, and the flashlight turned on.

Something to watch for if you use the chopping action.

And I am still only getting it maybe one out of three times. Thanks/

There is no wrist motion when you do the gesture. I've been able to activate the flashlight every time with a pushing motion. Like two short punches.

I turned the chop off. Seems awkward to use and a movement prone to dropping the device. I have a button in the drop down and home page for battery.

I turned it off as well. I have a toggle for the flashlight on my PowerToggles widget that works great. I use the camera gesture all the time but the flashlight gesture is just too awkward for me, and yeah - I worried about the phone flying out of my hand while using it.
