Then they move aside or roll over. If they can't do either then they were acting dangerously, not only by jumping in to danger, but also by making the criminal potentially lose control having to deal with an officer on the windscreen or under a wheel, endangering the public.

Vehicles can be tracked, other officers can pursue. The officer should take down details and get the force on it ASAP, not try to take lives and endanger the public needlessly.

It's not worth sacrificing the public to catch a criminal, the damage of the chase shouldn't exceed the danger of the criminal.

It also endangers the public if they let the criminal flee. They obviously don't care about hitting anyone. And they most likely will when it comes to crossing an intersection with a red light. It's safer to just take down the criminal before it comes to that...
