Funeral Road Rage

BBC News Mobile said: Funeral directors are urging drivers to show more respect after a survey suggested road rage against corteges has become commonplace. Research found more than half of drivers had seen others cutting into a procession or overtaking aggressively.

One in six had seen drivers making hand gestures or behaving threateningly. But three out of four drivers who took part in the Co-operative Funeralcare survey said they would consider pulling over to let a funeral cortege pass.
