🚨 A Reminder About Funeral Procession Etiquette in Kentucky 🚨

In Kentucky, it is a common and respectful practice for oncoming traffic to pull to the side of the road when meeting a funeral procession. This small gesture shows honor and compassion for grieving families during a difficult time.

⚠️ Kentucky Law states:

It is illegal to drive between vehicles in a funeral procession or interfere with its progress, except when:
Directed by a police or safety officer.
In the case of an emergency vehicle responding to an emergency.
🚗 Do NOT pass or overtake a funeral procession unless:

A police officer directs you to do so.
The procession is on a road outside the city limits.
The procession is traveling on an interstate highway or state parkway.
💭 Put yourself in the family’s shoes. Imagine escorting a loved one to their final resting place—wouldn’t you appreciate the respect of others during such an emotional time?

Let’s continue to show kindness and respect on the road. A little courtesy goes a long way.

Pedestrian Deaths Continue to Increase Unabated Year After Year – A Pedestrian is Killed Every 75 Minutes in the U.S. (GHSA)

Drivers in the United States struck and killed 3,434 people in the first half of 2022 – up 5%, or 168 more deaths, from the same period the year before, according to analysis from the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA).

Darkness and low visibility play a significant role in pedestrian deaths. In fact, more than 70 percent of fatalities happen in low-light conditions, particularly at night. In addition to the Pedestrian Safety Institute, Maglite is proud to have the American Paramedic Association, Citizens Behind the Badge, the U.S. Deputy Sheriffs Association, the lead economist of the Drucker School, Jay Prag, America’s Criminologist Dr. Currie Meyers, and legal scholar John Tulac joining in this mission to illuminate the dangers facing pedestrians and solutions.
