Yeah, this is a "lose your license" situation.

It's not a "lose your license" situation for a human driver and is also not anywhere near intractable for the AVs.

Here's the video from the article: https://vimeo.com/822783539. If a human driver was doing these things, the only reason it's not a "lose your license" situation is because the driver would have been removed from the vehicle by the officers and the vehicle moved aside by the officers. It's likely the driver still faces punitive measures. This is only loosely permitted because there isn't an individual in the car to blame.
The purported solution is "We'll let you move the car." This is a reasonable "lose your business license" situation. It's pretty easy to sympathize with those who are "vandalizing robotaxis with blunt tools".
