I used to work down the road from a couple of big cemeteries. It was very common to run into a procession going to/from lunch. They always had police escorts. Normally, the cops would kamikaze the oncoming lane and point for everyone to stop on the side of the road. That's what I was taught, allow them to pass, pull over and stop, never join in the middle of a procession or cross one. I was once however on a 4 lane state highway going the same direction as a procession. I stayed behind until they started to get off. Some folks passed them in an open lane. I wasn't sure what to do then myself. I figured staying behind was the safe bet.
