He can use the weapon only to protect himself or others from deadly harm.

Does speeding through a crowded parking lot full of people qualify?

That is a very good question. The parking lot can be crowded or deserted. The exit from the lot can be close by or far away. How fast, exactly, was the car moving? Was there anyone to protect or not? This is something that can be answered only by investigators at the site, considering all of the above and more. Otherwise the police eventually will get the right to shoot us whenever they feel to it, no questions asked - just like they shoot dogs today. The fact that this particular victim is unsympathetic makes the slope even more slippery.
