This begs for more discussion: what do you do when, on a lonely road, your vehicle is blocked by another car and a couple of brawny men come out and approach you... with no weapons drawn visibly? You're alone, or at least you're the only adult male in your vehicle, let's say with the wife and kids.

Additionally, what if it were a lone female?
If it's a road rage thing, apologize if you know you're at fault. It deflates an angry man when his opponent is apologetic... No one likes to hit a non-aggressive opponent... Well... Mostly.

Otherwise, drive. Once they're out of the car, you can just drive around them. We've actually done this once or twice with some drunken idiots coming at us...
