Hulley Inc. Box 855 Exeter, Ontario NOM 1SO Bob Fletcher, Iry Armstrong Director Director WHAT ARE THE RULES FOR FUNERAL TRAFFIC? Rules governing funeral processions differ sometimes from those governing other traffic. These tips may help if you are in a 'funeral procession (or to be remembered if you encounter one): 1. Use the windshield sticker or flag we provide • 2. Keep your headlights on. It identifies your vehicle as part of the procession. 3. If the procession is crossing an intersection while the traffic light changes to red,the processiondoes not by law have the right-of-way. As a courtesy, however, drivers will usually let the procession continue against the red light. The lead car, of course. will stop .and obey all 'posted signals. 4. A policeman, if available, may direct funeral traf- fic through busy intersections. We, as funeral directors, appreciate the escort service which our police department provides: The mourners con- sider this civic safety service both thoughtful and welcome. 5. If you are NOT part of the procession, remember it is courteous to allow it the Ott right-of-way. Do not cross it or join if. \ / The Funeral Home in Exeter who is a member of the Ontario Funeral Service Association is: IRV ARMSTRONG FUNERAL HOME PHONE 235-1220 • BOB FLETCHER Jim Becker Construction DASHWOOD 237-3526 Five Inch Steel Seamless Eavestroughing Now Available In 6 colors with all accessories The only siding with the steel -plus -vinyl difference!
