She very very clearly turned the wheel enough to demonstrate that she couldn't run the cop over from where he was standing. His life wasn't threatened.

And he was in the middle of the car, if you see the video I posted prior.
Which leads me to this:

Because the action of shooting her is the action under scrutiny. Any reasonable person can look at this and see that while she DID break the law the serious life ending force being used here doesn't make sense. It should have never gotten to this point.

Yeah, but she see the officer in front of her and she clearly made an action to violently remove him out of the way. This question I ask, what would happen if she drove off causing further harm? Why don't we think about that?

Let the woman go, add to her charges when she gets caught, and don't escalate this to a deadly force situation.

That's short sighted. What if the car wasn't hers? What if she goes and escape?
If we stick with this principle, then you pretty much say let a murderer go because "he can get hurt "

Then let's ask ourselves this:
"What was so serious enough for her to run off, and not only run off but run off and hit a cop."
