Remember you have to take off a quarter of second of any times, just for visual reaction delay. Then further take off the time to make a decision and the time to move. After his 20 years in border Patrol and ICE, the simplest and automatic solution would be to shoot.
He wasn't the other side of the road, he was in the same lane as the car. You can see the lane marking behind him.

He literally broke both those rules. He walked all the way around the vehicle and he shot at a vehicle that was moving. You only have to see the bullet hole to know he was in no danger at all, the front left corner of the car is where he stood when he fired the first shot so it was already moving to the right and NOT being driven at him and was barely 3-5mph if even that. Next two shots went in the side window. Again there was ZERO need as vehicle had already gone passed him.
Same for the officer that attempted to open her door, no danger.
