Unless you are statutorily empowered to do so (construction flaggers, police and fire personnel, etc.) blocking traffic to direct other traffic is also illegal.

And is a WWR going to report you?
To answer your rhetorical question with two rhetorical questions of my own- 1- Are most traffic tickets issued because some citizen reports the violation or because a cop *sees* the violation? In the situation the OP described I'd ticket both of them- the WWR for improper lane usage and the OP for "stupid in a no stupid zone" (No offense intended- it's just a cop phrase. The actual citation would be for obstructing traffic.) 2- Are foolish and illegal acts only foolish and illegal if you get "caught"?

That one I know the answer to because I've tried once or twice to report someone driving unsafely. What I found out is that it only happened if the cop saw it him/herself.

Per the answer to number 1, I'd say "yes" in regards to illegal, but "no" in regards to illegal.
