9. Umm, sorry, but the onus is on the police,

They need to learn not to respond to every single gesture as though it were a life or death situation.

This victim just had a crash, and was probably a bit shaken up. When that happens, any person is going to automatically start checking their body to see if they're OK, make sure that things are still in their pocket, etc. They will do this without thinking, and the cops should know this and allow for it. What makes a man, just climbing out of a wreck such a potential threat? Not a damn thing except for the cop's overactive, paranoid imagination. That is the problem we need to address, that is what cops need to be trained for, not pulling their gun and firing unless the person is standing perfectly still.
