If I was holding up cars for over a minute or so I'd pull over, as long as there was a safe spot to do so.
THis response is reasonable. I'd add to make absolutely sure you are visable. Trikes are low to the ground, and even more unusual to see a trike. So add a flag, lights, reflectors, whatever, be visable. \
And no black fairings, bright colors are your friends.
