Here's a little excerpt from the article:

Families First thinks they are above the law and can disobey the rules of the road, thereby endangering lives.

What is written below is a must read!


Basic rules for funeral processions.

1) If the lead car (the car at the very beginning of the procession) approaches a red light, that car MUST stop as per rules of the road. This has been confirmed through the traffic department of the Windsor Police Dept. If that car enters the intersection while the oncoming (crossing) traffic light is green, that lead car, hence the funeral home, is in violation of traffic laws. However, if the lead car properly enters the intersection when the light facing that lead car is green, then the entire procession may pass through the intersection no matter how the light changes during its passing.

2) It is a courtesy to not interfere, or break into a funeral procession, this is not a law. It's only out of respect that we must keep a funeral procession in one piece and not get in the middle of it as it is driving to its destination.

3) A funeral car (purple light on top), is NOT an emergency vehicle and does NOT have the rights of an emergency vehicle.

4) If the funeral procession is escorted by a police vehicle, the funeral procession has all the rights of the police vehicle because said police vehicle takes care of stopping traffic safely for the procession to pass any and all major intersections, therefore preventing any accidents from happening.

5) It is a MYTH that funeral processions are not allowed to stop. They're not a train, damnit! The still must obey traffic laws.

It's important that any company/corporation have to follow the rules just like anyone else. These people are not above the law and need to know this and not endanger people's lives. Help me spread the word.

That's just messed up. I can't believe they would SAY that, let alone THINK it! People with that kind of mentality need to be put through some serious training on what's right and what's wrong; what's dangerous and what's safe.

I have never heard of such a thing happening. I've been in plenty of funeral processions that had to stop.

Yes, from your story, they clearly WERE, and god knows if they still are, endangering people's lives.

Great post. These corporations who think they're above the law need to be put in their place and cut down to size and realize they are no better than the rest of us. If anything, they're worse.

Keep up the good work!

Some companies just believe they're above the law and that they are special somehow. The person is dead they can wait, no need to rush through the intersection and kill more people or is that what they want because it's good for business? And on top of all that they're trying to sell you a funeral plot, wow!
