does this mean i'm a bad person?

Clearly, your parents did not teach you how to behave and have respect for traditions in society. To think that you are more important than the "75 cousins" is arrogance. First, how do you know that the person was not of significance? Who judges what impacts a person's life might have? Second, the dead will never again slow traffic down, so you can't be bothered to show a slight bit of respect?
This attitude that I see with some people is appalling. Arrogance and lack of respect are character flaws. Luckily, they can be changed - if you want them to. Hopefully, as you grow older, you will continually review your actions and behavior, and will continue to improve your character throughout life.

Being a tradition doesnt make it right. In some parts of Africa sowing a females vagina shut at birth is a tradition and part of their society. Should we conform to accept those traditions too? Funeral ceremony is a scam. I can dig a hole to bury a coffin in about 35 seconds with 2 passes on an excavator. If it took a carpenter a half a day to build my deck, im pretty sure there are plenty who can build a 6 foot box in the same time. Why is the avg cost of a funeral over $10,000? If these are good nature'd traditions done out of respect, why is the funeral business a 15 billion $ a year industry? Atlanta has been in the top 5 crime rate for decades.... so the police force is clearly understaffed... but they find time to devote 6 police cars to a funeral convoy? I'd much rather those officers be protecting living citizens, then maybe there would be less of these funeral convoys to begin with. Not to mention... what is the hurry for a bunch of people who likely called out of work that day to get to a place? the 50 cars stuck in traffic because of them could have been on their lunch breaks. I pay taxes to use the public roads too. Them getting to their destination is no more important than me getting to mine. Show respect? It's respectful to consume an entire intersection so that you can more swiftly get to a destination to practice one of your religious customs that not everyone might share?
