advance and the vehicle has no choice to avoid them. But officers don't get out of the car carrying them on an investigation. If suddenly, the driver tries to take off, a few shots in the tire beats shooting at the vehicle as it is running away like some cops do. For a minor crime, it is safer for everyone.

That example was not a "movie". It was a real incident. At the time, I was curious and did a web search and found a newspaper story on it. Since the show is not live, although the video was made live, I had to search back a bit for the story.
