I wouldn't be surprised Vincent planned to kill the cab driver too once the job is done.
The movie referenced another cab driver who killed a bunch of ppl then offed himself. Vince probably did this already.
The problem I have is how he got shot by the cab driver, since in his words, he does this for a living.
I've chalked this up to thematic plot armor (movie's pretty dreamy already) but after reading some comments online, and rewatching the clip with that in mind, it actually kinda makes sense how it worked. The lights went out. Vince stood still, and went with his usual 2 shots to the chest, one shot to the head, aimed at where Max was standing before the lights went out. But when the lights went out, Max was already strafing, and shot as he did so.
So Max wasn't where Vince was targeting, and Max was just random shooting from side to side, so one of them got through.
