I’d pit maneuver another vehicle or pull any other move required to clear the area. There are lots of videos on the best ways to do this. It’s a little too complex to describe in detail here. Better is to get to the inside lane, so the (empty) oncoming lane gives you an escape route.
At 5mph you are not “intentionally running anybody down.” They can easily get out of the way, it’s their choice.
But as soon as I see a gun or a window is broken, I’m accelerating out at speed. I’m not waiting to be shot or have an incendiary thrown in through the busted out window.

Seen a few. I’ll watch some more. Did a J turn the other day just for fun. Mrs L was only moderately amused.

That’s our plan, too. We both always travel armed now. And we both have the same gun with spare magazines. No confusion about what works with which piece.
Love our XDS pistols. In .45 they’re small but very potent.

Interesting bit I got off a tactical driving video:
Make sure you can see the bottom of the tire of the car in front of you. If you can, you can easily turn in either direction and floor it, and not have to worry about hitting that car.
Try it out slowly when parked, you’ll see. It works.
