Funeral processions — Louisiana Permit Test
Funeral processions on the Louisiana permit test — 2 rules, each with the reason behind it and a question on it while it is fresh.
The rules
All drivers must yield the right-of-way to vehicles taking part in a funeral procession.
Breaking into a procession splits up mourners who are following each other and can cause a crash.
Funeral processions require all operators of motor vehicles to yield the right-of-way to the vehicles participating in a funeral procession.
Each driver in a funeral procession must have headlights on and emergency lights flashing.
The lights show other drivers which cars belong to the procession so they do not cut in.
While participating in a funeral procession each driver shall have the headlights of the vehicle lighted and the emergency lights flashing.
On the test
A funeral procession is passing through an intersection. What must you do?
Yield to the vehicles in the procession. Breaking into a procession splits up mourners who are following each other and can cause a crash. Class D & E Driver's Guide, p.97: “Funeral processions require all operators of motor vehicles to yield the right-of-way to the vehicles participating in a funeral procession.”
How this works
Most practice tests hand you a bank of questions and leave the manual somewhere else. This one puts them together.
You read one law and the reason behind it, then answer a question on that law while it is still fresh. Get it right and you move on; get it wrong and you have found the gap while it is cheap to fix, not on the morning of the exam.
Learning one rule at a time, and proving it immediately, is what turns a manual you skimmed into something you actually know — and it makes studying feel like getting somewhere rather than like waiting to find out.
What it costs
- One payment, once — not a subscription. Nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel, for an exam you sit one time.
- Free to start: a 10-question test and the first section of cards. No sign-up and no account.
- Paying opens the rest of the cards, unlimited full-length practice tests, and retests built from exactly the questions you got wrong.
- Every level up to Prepared — 3 tests passed in a row.
- Do the work, fail the real exam, and we refund you.
