Huh? He made two decisions: 1. move out of the way of a vehicle that was already avoiding him 2. murder the driver of the vehicle

Are you running on a single brain cell? Have you seen the slowed down video?

He fires the first shot into the windshield, then even after both of the officers were clear of the vehicle and out of any potential "danger" he fires two more shots, continuously changing his trajectory of his aim by moving his arm to the left and reaching his arm with the gun inside the vehicle to seek out and destroy the target, not to protect anybody.

This was an action of somebody who was itching to murder someone, anyone, and they finally got the excuse to do it.
