The other driver hit his vehicle, passed him, pulled a gun on him and pointed it at him. I think it is a stretch to say the shooter was “looking for a reason to use it” when the other guy drew first.

It would have been smarter to attempt to disengage rather than start blasting through his windshield ... but I’d put better than even odds that the guy who drew first would have matched speeds with the shooter if he had tried to slow down or stop.
