LoL @ whities...

In the south, (and I thought across the nation) it's just respectful that if you see a caravan, you pull just off to the side of the road and stop until the cars pass by. If you're behind them, you usually just look for another route, but you don't pass them (unless you're on the highway, which I've never seen before). If there funeral is in session at a cemetary or whatnot, most people turn down their music, and try to quietly pass by simply out of respect for the grieving, and mourning. They have many memories going through their minds...they don't need Jay-Z and LinkinPark's latest mix blaring in the background when they're trying to remember their lost friend or family member. It's a time to remember time spent with the one that was lost. Not be distracted.

That's my thoughts, anyways. They have enough going on as it is without me zipping by. And honestly, if I was in the caravan, and I saw people pull over, I could only hope that their respect comes back on them 10-fold for respecting my lost member.

I know some people who even stop, get out, and stand beside their car with their head bowed and hands down. I've done this one. And I do it only for military, fireman, and/or anyone providing a service that saves lives, or protects our country's rights and priveleges.
