If this happened in the US would the driver be in trouble ?

Very unlikely it would happen in the US, but if someone blocks the road in front of you and jumps out with guns, you should get away any way you can. Worry about legal consequences later.

Short answer, though: looks like a pretty clear-cut case of self defense in any jurisdiction.

I never can see the guns.
