He is driving in slow speed, somebody hits the side of his car with a baseball bat and he apparently panics and plows into the crowd in front of him.

That’s just the tail end of the video I saw, assuming it’s the same one.
He was a block or two behind that crowd with a clear street ahead of him when he first punched the gas. All you see there is what was happening as he ran up on the crowd.
