If they say no, make a fuss. If they move them, problem solved, no police needed at all.

Even if it was against the law for them to block the driveway - it is also not lawful for you to move THEIR property without their permission.

Didn't the OP say the workers were not in sight?

If they say no? How can anyone knowingly block someone's driveway and not comply when asked to move their vehicle? I can not imaging that ever happening.......ever.
