Hi, I block cars and we've talked about the use of caltrops and it's unclear if they are effective or not for what we want. There's some information that's been posted on how to make caltrops already and think they have their place, but the problem is that when you caltrop someone looking to hit people with their vehicles, you end up with an enraged person who cannot leave and who may be armed.
Vehicular assault has to be prevented at least a block away from a protest, assuming they are already moving. It cannot be prevented in close range because they'll already have momentum. In the ideal case, when someone attempts vehicular assault by breaking the line a block out, a warning system allows protestors to get to safety. We use whistles with the international repetitive two-short-bursts signal.
That's really the best you can do, but I've also considered having banners around protests that can be used to toss over a vehicles windshield.
Caltrops should only be used as a device when you want to permanently(effectively) disable a vehicle and are able to clear out of an area. For example, if you identify a group of vehicles coming from an area that are definitely going to be committing acts of violence, using caltrops to disable their vehicles before even reaching a group of vulnerable individuals is an effective strategy.

From abusers, clout chasers, careerists, and grifters to people getting thrust into a dangerous visibility, dehumanized, and overworked, the role of 'organizer' is detrimental both to the people who claim it/it's thrust upon as well as the movement for liberation as a whole.
Freedom doesn't need organizers, it needs everyone to take an active role in the fight and to refuse to put eachother on dehumanizing pedestals in the process.
We can't wait for others to fight for our freedom. As always, the secret is to begin.
