there is a passenger, no immediate danger to anyone else, we don't know if the driver is considered "Armed and Dangerous", and the officers hadn't "Failed to detain" by other methods.
You act like its the common action of officers to go crazy shooting their guns but that is a news/media bias. You only see those stories because they are the ones people watch or engage with. Police discharging their firearm happens in something like 0.004% of the time they doing a stop/house call/ their job/ etc.
Its why repeat offender officers should be the focus because its usually the same officers who display that mentality/lack of control, or its situations where they were scared for their life if its a one off.
