I fought the issue with the coats and driving early in my injury. I found personally the only thing that works for me is various weight hoodies. I can get them on and off myself, no zipper, can transfer easy and dont get in the way of the wheelchair tires.
I also fought the battle of pants coming down, i eventually switched to nylon pants and devised a way of leaning from side to side and working the pants up. This was a big issue for me because i would drive to a destination ,transfer into my chair to find my pants down then I had to go home. ron c7
