A reasonably slow steady drive forward is good. They cannot resist it, and will quickly fall away. It would also demonstrate that you did not have the goal of causing harm to them...only to escape.

A reasonably slow steady drive forward ...

I think yours is the winning sensible entry.

Charging forward at high speed is akin to shooting blindly into a crowd when only some of them are attacking you. It will get you in trouble.
Of course the final call is yours, you do what's necessary to survive. It's impossible to make rules that will work for every possible case.
