Narrative:
Three separate events of vehicles ignoring our aircraft movement caused me to have to abruptly stop our attempt to begin taxiing. Our flight attendants were almost knocked off their feet during our stops. One catering truck would have collided with our wing. One mechanic towing an O2 cart would have hit the right engine; and a tug baggage cart came dangerously close [to] the operating right engine.
