Is it considered bad form to slipstream a (loaded) hearse?

Fuckit the dead aint gonna worry about it. Admittedly if its being followed by the family in a cortège on the way to a hole in the ground it may be considered bad form.

It would because at the (presumed) speed a loaded hearse would be travelling at, there would be no slipstreaming benefit and you would just look stupid. 🙂

Not even I ride that slow, that's dead slow.

I shouldn't think its worth it, don't they normally travel too slowly?

Erm.. don't hearses generally drive at walking speed?

I'm not sure you're going to get much aerodynamic benefit.

LOL @ Drac. 🙂

It's rude to slipstream anyone without consent IMO.

I followed an ambulance with it's siren and lights on along the M80 this morning – fastest I've ever made it in!

Possibly just as morally reprehensible thinking about it.

You'd have to take your helmet off as a mark of respect surely?
