Default How to stop US highway traffic for loading disabled persons.

I'd be trying too hard if I stopped myself from saying: DON'T Park on 301 in Wildwood!!
Saw a car today STOPPED COLD on US 301, on the strip in Wildwood, using half of the right lane, while loading up GRANDMA with her walker after her shopping trip.
People this is not small town main street. It is US, as in United States Highway 301.
About 10-12 feet or so, just taking corner, from Grandma and her walker was a perfect parking lot where she could have safely gotten into the vehicle. But folks PARKED on a US highway to load up a disabled person.
301 is a thousand mile US highway. Don't park on it unless you want to kill Grandma.
