Explanation
Parking or stopping along the shoulder of the freeway is not allowed except in case of an emergency. Freeways and interstate highways are designed to handle higher speed traffic safely, and parking or stopping on the freeway can cause a hazardous situation for you and other drivers. If you must stop on a freeway, you should park completely off the pavement and stay in your vehicle with the doors locked until help arrives.
