Well, RCW 9A.40.040 says such actions are a Class C felony.

RCW 9A.16.020 and RCW 9A.16.050 state that force can be used to prevent such things, or to escape from them.

Furthermore, the way the protestors were milling around in the blind spots of vehicles seemed quite likely to produce injuries. I almost simply parked the car in the middle of the intersection and exited, abandoning the vehicle, save that I was unable to even get out of it.
