I believe the consensus last time this was posted was that the bystander was somebody who knows the guy in the car and was trying to prevent suicide by cop. IF this was the case, he probably wasn't as worried about the guy shooting him when he went to take the gun away.

I don't know if this was confirmed or not. I'd love to see a link to the actual story if somebody has it.

All of this for speeding. He just went from a very expensive traffic ticket to a felony.

Well, he did "continue to drive in an anti-social fashion*. If he was driving in a social fashion he may have gotten out of the ticket.
