Probably.
Most US military installations, since 9/11, have a remotely raiseable crash barrier some distance past the checkpoint. Standard procedure is to hit the button to raise that if anybody doesn't stop at the the checkpoint. This solves the "do I shoot, or not" problem.
Then guards can go after the vehicle.
This is a normal part of military life now. "“When you see a car hit the barriers it’s an intense moment because you think you might get in trouble,” the anonymous airman said. “But the overall feeling would still be ‘crap that’s even more paperwork.’”"[1]
