And the catafalque you rode in on
Drivers increasingly cut up funeral processions and make obscene gestures at hearses, funeral directors said on Tuesday.
Schoolchildren have even thrown stones at a horse-drawn coffin.
The National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors -- which organises 60 percent of the country's funerals -- said its members reported poor behaviour from drivers totally unsympathetic to the deceased's final journey.
"There is a disregard by many road users for the sanctity of the funeral cortege," said spokesman John Weir.
