do you remember any of them having flags on their car? Or do they not do that anymore?

A bit selfish, aren't we?

There was an accident, but he really missed it.

I don't know... maybe because I've only been to two funerals in my entire life? And they both have happened well before I ever began driving. But something like this... like I said, first time I've ever seen it in my life on the road. It may have been referenced to me somehow before, but it's some random useless fact of life. I tend not to remember those if not really giving them a second thought.

No flags.

He's a New Jersey driver. Not surprising.

Seriously, I'm actually impressed the people pulled it off on the road I was on if it was a funeral... It's almost impossible for 20+ cars to be able to line themselves up, get onto 18, and stay in line with each other (anyone who drives on Route 18, New Brunswick, NJ, with all the traffic, road work, and traffic lights knows what I'm talking about).

And come on, we NJ drivers aren't THAT bad! We're just used to having two way red lights for at least 1-2 seconds... pulling from the left lane directly into exits... trying to cut people off in traffic so we can get to where we need to be 4 seconds quicker, and etc.

Drive in NJ for a year or so, and you'll become a skilled driver.

that's a small highway

Also the worst. Driving on Route 18 is absolute hell around New Brunswick.. they've been working on it since long before I started traveling that road on a regular basis, and will still be working on it long after I'm gone.

So it looks like it may have been funeral... but I didn't see any vehicle that looked out of the norm. Just a bunch of cars.

Wow, well, never knew that for a funeral people did this. Learn something new everyday.

theres a cemetery in between my work and the fast food block here, and for a while there we got held up at lunch by funerals a few times a week. sucked. some were 40-50 cars long, doing 6mph with arizona rangers front and back, controlling (read: stopping) traffic. sometimes there was no limo, hearse or any noticeable car stating it was a funeral beyond the honor guard. the cool ones were the low rider parade funerals. at least i got to see the cars.
