If you have to take control of a situation it would make more sense to be standing and have some distance starting off. A seated position and in close proximity initiating contact in a seated position does not seem to me an ideal situation.
There wasn't a situation to take control of, there were two people walking in the road. That is not a situation. Telling them to get out of the road is not in any way 'confrontation'

How do you know that Wilsons account is wrong? That Brown punched him and went for his gun?

True but again, how do you know this happened? How do you know that Wilsons account isn't true? That Brown stopped Wilson from opening his door? And wouldn't you expect to see bruising on Browns legs if they had been slammed by a car door?
