I think that part of the issue is that there aren't a lot of funeral processions any more, especially in modern urban America. That leads to people not being aware of what's going on and violating the procession because they often aren't clearly marked.

I was guilty of that within the last year. I thought I had gotten in behind a bunch of slow moving morons and passed a couple of them before I saw the tiny little funeral procession signs in their cars. They were p!ssed at me, understandably, but I didn't realize they were in a funeral procession, either.

From my experience, there needs to be a better way of identifying them.

Locally, processions have the drivers turn on their headlights AND the emergency flashers.

But so what? When a 20 car procession is travelling down a busy city street or roadway... it just don’t work.

IIRC from my youth- the last car in the line had a magnetic sign attached to the left rear side that clearly stated this group was a funeral procession.
