Funeral Procession-Cases
1969 Paige v. Edgar, 210 Va. 54, 168 S.E.2d 103.
City ordinance provided that no vehicle shall drive between funeral procession. This ordinance was inconsistent with state law and thus was void. Plaintiff, although in procession, was required to stop for red light since there was no police officer at intersection.
