It must be SOP. This is the second vid in a month I've seen a cop do it.
Whatever works I guess. Seems reckless but wtf do I know.

A lot of rounds were flying back and fourth in that video. Rather they be going out than coming in.

A friend of mine did that in the early 1990s before it was "a thing." It just wasn't on YouTube. What are you supposed to do if people are shooting at you? Quit because there's a windshield between the two of you?

The officer is responsible for every round going out the windshield. Reckless at best. Would have been deafening in the squad car. And then, empty magazine into stopped vehicle. The officer needs some serious training.

I know the New Jersey state Police practice shooting left handed oot the drivers side window while going in reverse! Done while practicing night shooting. Why would you shoot your windshield out when it's the only thing protecting you?

The officer needs some serious training. You are absolutely right. He should have sent a text message to the murder suspects and told them to stop shooting. You don't know what you are talking about.

Why would you shoot your windshield out when it's the only thing protecting you? Do you think the windshield protected the turds in the getaway vehicle from his bullets? It would not appear so.

He may have to ask people to repeat themselves from now on, but they won't be planning his funeral tomorrow. When the gunfight starts, the only thing that matters is that you WIN.

Why would you shoot your windshield out when it's the only thing protecting you? Those cats at NJSP are high speed low drag, I guess. The deal is, though, that THIS individual officer, was thinking enough to know that he would be more accurate shooting strong hand with support, even if it meant shooting through his own windshield. My guess is that the first shot was loud, but then again, maybe not. During a SNS dump, it is pretty common for auditory exclusion to kick in.

The scumbags are dead, he's not. Call safe lite auto glass and get that car ready for the next shift.

I remember bowfishing as a kid.... you had to aim low to compensate for the light refraction IIRC.... probably something similar with shooting through a windshield... maybe related to the model of car and angle of windshield..... inquiring minds and all

The officer needs some serious training. The fuggers were shooting at the cop, what did you want him to do, hide under the dash like that coward in Broward county did? He fought back and won. As far as I'm concerned we need more just like him.

The mag dump at the end was highly appropriate. Scumbag deserved every bullet that made it into him.

i can remember our firearms instructor setting up a training course for us. using a vehicle
the scenario was you rolled up on a dispute in progress, upon arrival you immediately see things have deteriorated to the point of several individuals pointing guns at you..how do you react. aside from obvious tactical order.
most people exited the car using it for cover. i shot through the wimdshield before exiting the vehicle and seeking cover.
even with ear peotection it was loud.
bullets traveled fine through the glass and struck the targets
as fsr as the mag dumo at the end. if someone is engaging me in a rolling gunfight and upon exiting if ind them still attempting to continue that fight they are gonna get shot until they stop...either continuing the fight or breathing
The government plans these shootings by targeting kids from kindergarten that the government thinks they can control with drugs until the appropriate time--DerbyDude

Windshields are cheap, funerals are expensive.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

The officer needs some serious training. Killed one, got lead into the other, and took two murder suspects off the streets with zero innocents hit. The results indicate he was sufficiently trained.
