Limousine and Motorcade in Funeral Procession

Polices blocked my way

I was frightening when police motorbike and cars stop me suddenly while green light turn on. I ask myself:” what wrong with me?” Then, I saw at least two Limousines and many other types of cars pass through from another road (my right). 

It was first time for me to see funeral procession in the America. Funeral processions have the rights to continue their driving even when red traffic light, and we must stop to allow procession pass though while our traffic light is green. Never cut in a funeral procession.

We may resume our traffic after the last vehicle of procession pass through by looking the flags. The last vehicle usually has at least two flags and it has light flashing sometimes.

    It's interesting they stopped traffic for the funeral procession. In Canada I've only seen this down in small towns not larger cities.

    Tanza, a funeral procession has the right away as a way of respect. The only times that this doesn't occur, is on a 4 way highway. On a two line highway people do stop on the side of the road until the hearse caring the person who has died passes on. It's always a show of respect. See you for now.

    Yes, I remember not to go before this line of cars, and I always try to find another way (the back roads). It makes me sad when I see a funeral procession. I lived down the street from the church growing up, and I saw them often.

    Have a peaceful weekend, my friend.

    In my country, only ambulance can run red light with utmost carefulness. Didn’t know a funeral procession can do that in America. When we come across a funeral procession, we stop and see it off out of custom but not law.

    Funeral processions have the rights to continue their driving even when red traffic light, and we must stop to allow procession pass though while our traffic light is green.
