These guys were running around 25kph on the middle lane of SLEX.

I know we should respect the dearly departed, but inconveniencing others is going too far.
Also, those stupid police escorts started sounding their sirens when traffic started to pile up right after the C5 bridge. Ano akala nila? Tatabi dapat lahat ng tao para sa kanila?
Anyway, here's a picture one of those funeral rent-a-cops with his unregistered motorcycle.

Think something like this was posted previously. Anyway, saw a couple of these this morning.
The first one:
The second one, which was way, way longer than the first, and caused a lot of traffic by driving on the middle lane, preventing vehicles on both sides from overtaking:




Sana naman sa rightmost lane sila. Also, you can see that the bikes that these "rent-a-cops" are using fall way below the 400cc limit of the SLEX, and that the diplomatic vehicle has an illegal red light beacon (or I think that's what they're called) on top.
I mean, I'm all for respecting the dead. But it's no excuse to inconvenience others, since they are using a public road.

This bike cop was seen stopping and actually parking in the middle of the EDSA-Santolan ground level intersection this morning at around 10:06am.
Turns out he was escorting a funeral procession.
Anyway, this practice of bike cops escorting these funeral processions is pretty common in the country. Is this something legal? It's just that sometimes I feel that they don't really add value to the general public.
