Try it with other things, "A Georgia gunman's bullets caught on video colliding with a group of cyclists..."

Does it sound like it should definitely be a crime? Then it should probably be a crime with a vehicle too.

Well did he just throw the bullets at them? Turns out words have meanings and can manipulate people to think one thing when they mean another.

This article says two completely different things “collided” and “passed too close”. Both are pretty bad, but one is clearly worse than the other.
