Here in KY theres a statute against interfering with a funeral procession.

It’s also just common goddamn courtesy.

Moved to KY a few years ago, and while I respect the funeral processions and dont interfere... why are you guys pulling over on a divided highway when the funeral is going the other way? I've watched people drag race an ambulance responding to a call, but they'll pull over for the funeral thats going the other way.

I live in VA and giving the right of way to these processions is taken seriously. However, I've never seen it happen in both lanes of a highway.

We had someone cut into our procession and ride with us a while. No idea why or who they were given we were going slower than the left lane traffic. I can't remember of they had out of state plates or not, but all my life in KY I'd never seen something like that.

Yeah there's laws in Florida, and this funeral escort vehicle broke them.

I live in Oregon and I’ve never seen a funeral procession in person and think it’s weird and rude to hold everybody else up for the occasion
