When you see a funeral procession coming, do you stop out of respect?

If it's coming the other direction on the highway do you pull to the side and stop your car?

Don't really see many funeral processions any more. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw one. Lot of police departments stopped providing them escorts.


But I was raised to stop for them.

Funerals are for the family, a-hole. Not the dead person. It's to respect the family.

It's a part of respecting all people, even those you don't know. Sounds like you don't really understand that sort of stuff.

I will just as long as it isn't on a 4 or 6 lane road.

highway, other direction, no

I will pull over in certain scenarios, just so they can move along a little more efficiently out of respect

Yep, and FYI to some of the people here who have never heard of this, you are also supposed to stop for school buses that are loading and unloading.
