In the snippets that I've read of Ramos's testimony. He did not come off well (though I disagree that some of the things that you reference that he said are that bad -- such as not hearing anyone say "Hit him.")

And is was the prosecution that made a big deal about the chase, as Kanof's opening statement made clear. (I haven't summarized my reading of that yet.

But I have a theory about why Ramos came across so poorly, and that has to do with whether he even fired a shot.

Ramos has Tourettes Syndrome, nerves usually makes it more pronounced. Perhaps that had a certain amount of bearing on his ability to present himself in court.
