I think the more apt traffic comparison, TS, would be you are walking down the road when a drunken, reckless driver speeds the wrong way up a one-way street, and runs other traffic off the road; one of the drivers who swerves to avoid the drunken wrong-way driver hits you.
Swerving to avoid a puppy would be understandable, but isn't a good comparison for most defensive shooting scenarios.
In the case described above, it would be a nasty situation, but what (if any) degree of fault would actually be assigned to the drivers who had been run off the road?
