This is from a regularly scheduled Everglades Bike Club weekend ride in Key Biscayne, USA, on a 10km stretch of road, and all the drivers know to expect it will be there in the mornings.

Not sure what your point is. A traffic jam is way more common and then the driver would be completely stuck.

Clearly there's also no legal issue, as OP said this is a weekly event. Since Americans are masters at complaining, it would have long been stopped.

It's illegal, but the cops are too busy beating the shit out of minorities to care about cyclists blocking the flow of traffic. If you're not from the states, you have no right to speak on the traffic law here.
