Belle:

I'm not a cop or a lawyer but I believe that in most cases, when a female is in any way attacked by a male - even by automobile - on the road - pulling a gun may be permissible (assuming it's licensed) if she can prove that she had reason to believe her life was in danger.
Touchy legal situation but if two men not only spat at your car (no real danger to your life, there) but then tried to ram you or in any way 'assault' you with their vehicle, pulling your weapon would probably be justifiable but laws are weird and every jurisdiction is different so you could still be in trouble but worth it if you thought you were in true danger.

FYI to all:

Your auto collision insurance doesn't pay for 'intentional' acts that cause damage to your vehicle. Running someone off the road and hitting them - no matter what else happens - will find you paying for both your damage and the other guy's out of your pocket. Insurance will not pay when you cause damage due to a purposeful, illegal act.

I know because I was an auto insurance agent at one time. Check your policy's fine print.
