So by your logic we should be able to shoot anyone driving a car because they could potentially hit someone and kill them

My logic doesn't entail shooting everyone that drives a car. My logic is saying that context matters. Should we allow all drivers in all situations to drive recklessly regardless of the outcomes? You know the answer is no, so why are you asking that question?

So we can shoot anyone doing anything at all reckless? Okay, gotcha.
