It is a little more believable that the driver panicked when he or his car was getting attacked, people surrounded his exit (behind) and so he had no choice but to go forward and into the car in front in hopes of pushing the cars out into the intersection so that he could leave. The protesters might have even been assaulting him through his window with pepper spray or fists.
I strongly doubt that he wished to run over the pedestrians and was probably simply looking for a way to leave the area.

You may wish to think it is “far fetched,” but the Fischer videos demonstrate beyond a shadow of doubt that the van was carefully positioned for a planned collision, and that the “protestors” that suddenly appeared there were bused in to a point near by.
More coffee might help?

The videos are immensely boring. Too much preliminary talk. But having watched the full set there are some revelations.
The van arrived when there was no crowd, parked in the intersection and the driver got out and waited leaning against the building. Next thing she was pictured being struck by the car, looking more posed than real.
The challenger (car that did the ramming) was in the street for much longer than it would have taken to drive to the contact point, 1.5 min vs 20 seconds.
The protestors marched rapid fire to the site of the van, from several blocks away, 1-2 minutes before the collision and were marshaled into position.
The video poster had a few other points, the van was bought as salvage a couple of days before in Montana, taken to Va, registered, repainted and set up to be totaled. He believed the protestors delayed the police actually getting to the scene and the victims. I am lukewarm about those points but I do believe the live videos that have been posted make it clear that there was an element of planned theatre about this event. I hope we will eventually know the truth.
