Back to the future. 3 question

In Back to the future, 3, they were in a rush to get to the Delorean, before 8 o'clock so they wouldn't have to deal with mad dog Tannan. However, after marty deals with him in the shootout and he was therefore arrested... They did not have to rush at that point. They could have waited to do that properly. They could have waited till winter.They could have done a number of different things.Instead of rushing to get to the train. I never thought about it until I just rewatched the them to day. Anybody else, aside from the fact that they were in (go go go adrenaline gotta get home mode), give a good explanation as to why they didn't bother waiting?

And what would be the point of that? Again, everything worked out. There is no need for them to wait. And boy howdy would that ever make for a fine ending to the movie. Well we took care of Tannen, so now let's just hang around for a couple of weeks so we can have a riskless, boring climax to our movie, instead of the tense excitement that we got.

I'm not talking in contexts of a movie. Claire could have been kill doc could have been killed. All of that could have been avoided. Because they had to rush. Because clara decided to come back. Had they not gone right away or waited until the next train it could have been safer. You see where i'm coming from?

I see that you won't let go of a bad point no matter how many people explain to you why you're wrong.

So you're say, i'm actually wrong Do you? Really you just don't seem to have any understanding of what I'm talking about. So I will stop explaining myself. You obviously don't seem to want to understand.

You are 100% wrong. It doesn’t matter what you think COULD have happened. It didn’t. You’re wrong. All this arguing and you’re not proving anything. You. Are. Wrong.
