An NYPD officer opened fire on a driver who struck another cop with his car during a traffic stop in Brooklyn on Wednesday night, police said.

Nobody was struck by the gunfire, cops said.
The officer who was run into was taken to Kings County Hospital in stable condition, police said. The second officer was uninjured.

Without consulting the Oracles of the Patrol Guide, isn’t there an exemption carved out that states Officers shall not fire at a moving vehicle UNLESS said vehicle is actually being used as the “weapon”, (ie Truck Bomb, Intentionally used as weapon in Assault ) which has caused, about to cause SPF/Death ... yada yada?

I believe the Intent of PG order was to deter the mere stopping of vehicle by use firearms (like warning shots have been banned), or trying to obtain driver complaince, all to avoid the unintended consequences of a 4,000 lb vehicle to become an uncontrollable projectile causing more injuries or deaths

If that car was in the process of repeatedly running over a cop or civilian and while still actively engaged in the assault, then the use of firearms would be justified to prevent SPF/Death

Please chime in

3 years ago, the NYPD did revise its Patrol Guide to allow officers to specifically shoot at a moving vehicle if said vehicle was going to be used to cause a "mass casualty terrorist event".

So maybe this heroic cop believed the vehicle, trying to run over and kill his partner, was en route next to cause some sort of mass casualty terrorist event, so he followed the revised patrol guide and did what he had to do... just saying.
