Or... not Like I said, it's personal opinion. To say I'm not sane, or say that I should join in the funeral just because I would wait behind it is daft.

So you lot are saying that you would sit behind it doing 10mph instead of overtaking? Bollox.

I bet you all moan if a car is doing 10mph below the speed limit when your behind them.

It's not the going slow that shows respect Were you dragged up? They very rarely do 10mph along a 60mph road anyway

The OP said it was doing about 20 but yes I would, I'm not saying everyone else should, that's their call to make.

Massive divide here. The southerners all said they will overtake, whereas the northerners/scottish all said they wont overtake.

i do get pissed off with people going slow but i wouldnt overtake a funeral car, there will be at least 4 cars going to the funeral so it would take a decent bit of acceleration to get past all 4 of them

There is no law against overtaking? So I'm not sure what law we are meant to be abiding here Steve?

That has fuckall to do with this thread? I didn't say 80 was unacceptable, because I regularly exceed it But what you were saying is it's basically legal. Whereas the highway code states otherwise. But again, dig that thread up if you wish to debate the point.

They? Saying ALL Scots said it is quite a bold statement. An incorrect one at that.

Not gonna bother to read all the comments but anyone who said overtake is a cunt. End of.

What's ten min out of your day? How would you like if it happened to you?

Hate cunts that pull out, overtake funeral processions.

Overtaking a funeral procession would be the height of ignorance.

Nothing is that important you can't show literally seconds of respect for other people.

There seriously is a trend here that the Scottish and northeners aren't a gang of tits (well in this instance anyway). I must figure out why this is...

I'm guessing that's because your moral compass doesn't allow you to go with kids either?

I think the Scotch said they wouldn't overtake a cop doing 80. I don't sit under 70 on the motorway.

id overtake. just like i did to a load of gypsy's with their horses today. wasnt being shy on the rev's eather, although i didnt take the piss.

just think of it this way though, for all you know that car could be carrying the dead body of the thieving, raping, bighead! plus he's in no hurry

no disrespect to the nice dead people
