If he's driving off, he did something. He could take out a bunch of people with his car. Granted, he could've taken out a bunch of people driving dead too. The cop obviously had good instincts and knew something was up.

I don't know procedure, are they allowed to just drive off? I know if they draw their weapon they plan on using it, and if they use it they shoot to kill.

So, why is he sitting in the can tonight?

“If he’s driving off, he did something.”

If so it doesn’t warrant a death sentence on the spot of the infraction.

The cop had good instincts? Wow. I’m speechless.

The cop was dealing with an uncooperative motorist, who, when asked to step out of the car, proceeded to put turn the ignition and put the car in drive. The cop’s “instinct” at that moment was to reach into the vehicle (he did not reach into the car until after it was turned on), putting himself in danger in the event the guy decided to drive off. Then, less than a second later, he shot the guy in the head, causing the guy’s now-dead body to slump forward and the car to accelerate.

Those are some fine instincts there, officer.
