I'm going with no if the other guy is unarmed. You shouldn't be pulling over in that situation unless you are ready to man up and fight. 100% that if "Beau" had shot an unarmed drunk after pulling over(which is instigating a confrontation) he would be charged with a crime.
i don't think a blanket no is correct...its more complicated...does the other guy appear bigger, stronger, highly aggressive? a bat is okay but both will wind up in the hospital that way--same with a knife: gun is best, only one gets hurt that way

as for earlier post in the thread sneering about using a weapon (gun): only a fool or soon dead hero gets into a fair fight, stack the odds in your favor by having a gun, knowing how to use it and staying in practice

last you claim Beau instigating...i could see where Beau is just standing his ground? here is a case in Florida where the judge ruled no crime committed using a gun in a road rage incident
