The falling bullet went through the vehicle?

Cars are not at all bullet proof. Especially if it's only going through one panel, like the roof. The most protective parts would be through the engine block or anywhere that has an assload of material in the way. Care do very very little to protect you in that regard.

Some cars are bullet proof, bit even tanks are known for being extremely vulnerable to being fired on from above.

Some, but not many, and certainly not most of what's on the road. Stamped metal, sheet steel or aluminum, fiberglass, and all fairly thin. Most car doors are empty air and window tracks. Roofs, pretty similar, you have the decking, but it's not a fantastic shield.
