Again, context is everything.
In the Georgia case, seconds counted. The car w/ the woman on the hood was headed directly
into the intersection of a
major thruway between Marietta & Smyna

The video does not show the actual shooting, but rather the CCW individual beginning his
pusuit of the car which then goes out of the frame. When you see the location the
car finally stopped upon the driver being shot driver's side, you see where it had entered
the adjacent road -- woman still on the hood.

If anyone here has ever been to Marietta, S Cobb drive is a
huge high speed/8-lane divided freeway.
The CCW had literal seconds to decide, and took the point-blank shot
He did good.

Admittedly snarky Comment: Gee, that's nice.
