"punched the gas pedal and began speeding straight at the policemen.......and at 14 miles per hour one second before it hit Officer Bunn and the police cruiser..."

Hmmm, I wouldn't think that you'd need to be Keanu Reeves ala The Matrix to get out of the way of a car going at the break neck speed of 14 MPH.

Not to take anything away from the officer's plight... I keep visualizing the image of the security guard facing down Austin Powers' steam roller...

“The Georgia Bureau of Investigation determined that Officer Bunn was five feet or less from the Tahoe when he fired his revolver.”

Why don’t you figure out how many feet per second that is when you’re standing only 5 feet away. That’s about 205 ft per second. Your’e gonna need matrix reloaded speed.
