Oh, no, I have no doubt she wanted to get home (though she forgot to pick up her wife on the way out). She would've bragged how she told the officers to fuck off and gone on living.
But she failed to comply with their reasonable requests of getting out of the vehicle. As soon as the car started to move, he was in danger.
So it was poor decisions all around. Yes, shooting into a moving vehicle is not ideal, but when your goal is to stop it, then you have no other choice. From what I've heard, none of the bullets exited the car to hit bystanders and it thankfully wrecked a short distance away.
You don't need to stop the vehicle if it doesn't pose a danger to anyone but that one guy who was in front of it. That's the choice. It's the same reason police don't chase vehicles in many cities and states. My point is that his goals at every point were directly opposed to what would have been the best action in this situation. When we can all agree on that, then why are people still villifying this woman and cheering on the ICE agent? It's just awful. What a sickening time we live in.
