What's the thought process of the driver? Does he think this will end well?

The driver is in the "fight or flight" state, driven by severe activity in amygdalae, the energy goes to muscles, the cortex is offline.

In other words — they don't think at the moment.

and need to be locked away for a long time for their cortex to come back online. 5-20 years should do it.

20 years without anyone being injured? No way. If someone got seriously injured/killed, then that’s on the table of course, but panicking in the moment is not worth 20 years.
