Two main meanings.
“Thanks for the dinner and company, but it’s getting late, so we should hit the road”—meaning it is time for us to leave or go home.Similarly, if you are traveling, but stop to eat or for gas, you say it meaning that you are or need to continue your travels. These are polite usages.
If a bum asks for money and doesn’t take “no” as an answer, or kids are playing around your new car and keeping doing so after you asked to play elsewhere, then, you say that phrase to them in a stern voice. This is not a polite usage. It is similarly to “Go away” or “Get the f*ck outta here!”
