Shit a brick, I will be "70" in a couple of years!

I am going to take the hint and stay away from funerals as long as I can!

They are obviously bad for your health!

Ride safely out there. Cheers John.

Okay - so you come across the funeral procession somewhere in it's middle. How are you supposed to know it's a funeral procession if you haven't seen the hearse? Therefore you would unknowingly cross when it was safe to do so thereby breaking the law.

nasty.

Cops are supposed to be stopping traffic at every cross street or as often as possible when escorting a funeral.

His job was to be there before the procession got there.


Not saying he's completely at fault. The driver should have seen him with his lights flashing if no siren and figured something was up.

The SUV had enough roadspace to get through the other side. The cop made an ill judged overtaking manoevre.

Cop should be facing charges for dangerous riding.

I have to agree. I saw some cars driving along, an SUV trying to pop through a gap that looked a bit small, then a motorbike overtake the filming car and crump into the SUV. Cop or not it was ill judged and clearly his fault.

"Cited for interfering with a funeral procession"
Coppers had to come up with something to save face I suppose.
