…When they’re in the way of you turning in or out of somewhere (and you can’t get around them without physically moving them), do you stop and move them or nudge/flatten them out of the way?
I just had such a dilemma thanks to some gas men at a T junction. They couldn’t pull them out of the way as they were too busy watching me, so I “repositioned them” so that they will not impede any further 8wheelers making a similar turn.

As long as you did"nt drive over somebodys lawn . . .
once my front wheel passes them,then there history if there in the way… 
If you just catch the base with half an inch of the outer drive tyre, it spits them sideways about a meter and a half… Not that I enjoy doing it or anything… 
Working on the roads myself , its usually the ones that can’t drive properly that run them over
I get out and move them. Nothing worse than seeing a driver mow over your cones.
I get out and move them. Knowing my luck, if I didn’t, it rip something off my truck!

some of the pricks these utility companies employ would not know how to set a site up correctly in the first place

I get out, place any offending cone on my head and drive off with it sticking out of the window, whilst hollering sea shanties at the top of my voice. I currently have 9 points on my license.
then you get knobs like this , who insist they have to make a delivery hence why they ignored the signs for road closed ,but don’t know the address of the non existent house 
I sit there and phone the cone helpline.

But if the closure had been correctly set up he would not be able to get up the road in the first place.
As much as I should not admit to this . As the ■■■■ taking will now start.
A long time ago when Spain still used its own currency I was batting down towards Toledo one night in the dark and being bored on an empty motorway ( as you do get when alone for hours on the road at night abroad and the missus is snoring in the top bunk) I took out about 60 with the tanker for fun !, watching them ping off into the dark.
The nasty boys in blue with the guns saw me from their vantage point and stopped me.
After I put them back in place they fined me on the spot .
FFs they were better hidden than Lord Lucan .
Moral of the story…Do not get caught ! She was not impressed either .

How did you pass a medical with a peg leg and an eye patch?

He bribed the doctor with some buried treasure.

and he was coming the other way. The road was obviously not “closed”

its all part of the fun between stops…I scattered a couple of them years ago as I was passing an old pram and a bundle of rags lying at the edge of the grass verge on a nice left hander…gotcha…dead on target and scuttled the lot…then the bundle of rags jumped up and started jumping up and down with the arms waving etc…harry ramps pick the strangest places to sleep sometimes…I never stopped but he didnt look too happy though he must have been ok otherwise he wouldn’t have been doing a Tasmanian devil impression…
