The main Machine gun in the Merkava is an m2 browning with the fire rate of 450-600 rounds/min, 335 bullets is 44 or 33 seconds.

firing into a car for even 33 seconds staight is so completely unhinged

Speaking of, I'm reminded of a journalist who spoke about (our) troops opening fire on vehicles that got too close in Iraq (and she was showing videos of the murders) getting death and rape threats for talking about it. People in the Middle East speed, and no warning shots were even made (these are also civilian streets with other civilian vehicles on the road), instead just opening fire into the driver's seat.
