>> When a driver tries to run down a cop (or agents), they are allowed to defend themselves using deadly force, or else they or other bystanders could be killed. It's a pity, but it's not the agents' fault.

These agents were in plain clothes gang-banger wear. She probably thought she was getting car-jacked. You would drive desperately too if somebody in their finest urbanwear pointed a gun at your car.

If 2 people are coming at me with guns I'll give them the car.

No doubt about my response, (THUMP...THUMP...BUMP...BUMP). I will not turn my family over to anyone who appears to be an armed gang member. The only difference is that I would steer the vehicle in a left and right oscillation as I close in and drive away to avoid the possible gunfire. An undercover police officer in gang attire should behave more cautiously than one in uniform. Not everyone will respond with the left pedal.
