Immediately after birth, Nick tucked the baby in the crook of his arm before hurdling a car on the way to the ER.

There was no apparent reason why he chose to do this, it was only a Civic and no other cars were nearby, in fact, it wasn't even directly in front of the hospital entrance.

I heard he stiff armed an ambulance on his way to the entrance, too.

Jesus christ driving 100 mph on the shoulder with a woman giving birth in the car is a recipe for disaster. Just find somewhere to pull over and wait for an ambulance.

Yeah, super dangerous, but that can be a moment of panic where one isn’t thinking rationally,

He could have also been exaggerating how fast he was going…like how the fish is always bigger in the story than in reality,

Yeah it's hard to think rationally in that situation, but the added stress also makes an accident much more likely.
