Its pretty unlikely that an elk can attack a car with sufficient force to harm someone inside but the response is to drive away.

In some sort of weird situation where you'd lost the car glass and the vehicle was inoperative, sure - shoot the elk. But you better have a good set of evidence to back up your story because no DOW officer is going to believe.
