I've used it to "park" and let people out of my car, but never left the vehicle that I can recall. I also don't wait for the person I dropped off to come back. One notable exception for helping my mom get into a wheelchair at the ER, but that was more of a designated drop off zone that I probably stayed in too long than a proper "no parking" zone. Maybe 3-5 minutes instead of the anticipated seconds?
