Sometimes, it can be easy to forget how impactful a funeral or memorial service is. A funeral service helps survivors find meaning and purpose in living, even after the loss of a loved one. They also help to provide acknowledgement of the reality of death, crucial public affirmation and healing social support, and celebration of a life well-lived.

Ever encountered a funeral procession while driving? What's the right way of handling the situation? Is it necessary to pull over?

While the laws vary from state to state, one should always pull over for a funeral procession out of politeness to the grieving family.

Some other good rules to keep in mind out of respect for the deceased and the family:
* Don't cut into a procession or cut them off
* Don't honk at the vehicles in the procession
* Yield the right of way until the entire procession is through the intersection
* On the highway, don't pass the procession on the right

In general, be patient and considerate, and keep in mind that the folks in the procession are likely going going through a very difficult time.
