      Just asked again...the procession was several blocks long. It was making a left turn from her street onto another street. When she passed it, she got lots of flashing lights and horn beeps.

        A lot of people in a funeral procession aren't from around there. They need the procession to know how to get to the cemetery. (And they can't just show up whenever, these things are often on a schedule.) I'd say, just don't get in between the cars. Everything else is whatever.

        Please love yourself.

          Do not pass. Drivers traveling in the same direction as a funeral procession should never pass or attempt to pass unless the highway has two or more lanes going in that direction. When on a highway, never pass a funeral procession from the right side unless it is traveling in the far left lane.

          Mrs. K is OK.

          The "looks could kill" gazes are jerks.
          They probably got left out of the will.

            I'm from the rural South.

                @George-K it’s a shame you don’t have a car with a horn that blows Dixie.

                Because that would have been awesome.

                I was only joking

                    Who’s Dixie?

                    Yeah, in Indiana you stop even if the procession is going the other way. Not that way in Ohio.
