According to security-camera footage, captured at a drive-in burger stand, the judge has ruled that Mr Knight will be tried for murder and attempted murder over the incident.
One of the victims was killed and the other seriously injured.
Mr Knight's legal team says it was an accident as their client was fleeing what he believed was an ambush attempt by the two men and others.
But prosecutors say Mr Knight deliberately ran them them over.
Footage shows the vehicle pulling up to the burger stand and one of the victims approaching the driver's side window.
Mr Knight's truck is seen going into reverse, throwing the man to the ground. It then moves forward, driving over his legs and slams into the other victim, who was killed.
Mr Knight turned himself in to authorities a day after the incident. If found guilty, he could face a sentence of 25 years to life in prison.
