has anyone applied for, or got Hardship Mail Delivery? [View all]

My parents have to cross an extremely busy road with 60 mph speed limit to get their mail. They are in the country so the mailbox is on a post across the road. Both use walkers and are high fall risks. I am here with them a few days a week so I can get the mail when I am here but when I am not here it has to be brought in daily... as there are meds from the VA. Just wondering if anyone had attempted to get this?...and what would be the options? Tossing the mail into the driveway? I got the paper delivered this way.... I not only worry about my dad getting hit ( mom is too 'with it' to go get it herself but dads a 91 yr old marine, so....)but if he fell she couldn't even go out and rescue him.

I did find the hardship mail delivery info online and it says they usually side with the post office in making decisions

any info regarding this would be appreciated and thanks in advance!
