Reply to comment by George4Mayor86 in MULTIPLE PEDESTRIANS STRUCK BY U-HAUL TRUCK IN BAY RIDGE, BROOKLYN by Darth_Monkey

It would be pretty weird to be struck by a driver. Like the driver got thrown out through the windshield and collided with a pedestrian. Could happen, but usually I think people are struck by the vehicle

Do people get shot by bullets, or shot by other people who use guns?

If we say "bullets struck John" that seems pretty clear. If we say "a person struck John" that sounds like a fistfight.

"Bob shot John with a handgun" versus "John was struck by bullets fired by a handgun"
