61-8-383. Vehicles not in funeral procession. The driver of a vehicle that is not part of a funeral procession may not:
     (1) drive between the vehicles forming a funeral procession while they are in motion except when:
     (a) authorized to do so by a police officer; or
     (b) driving an authorized emergency vehicle emitting an audible or visible signal;
     (2) join a funeral procession to secure the right-of-way granted by 61-8-380;
     (3) pass a funeral procession on a multiple-lane highway on the funeral procession's right side unless the funeral procession is in the farthest left lane;
     (4) enter an intersection, even if the driver is facing a green traffic-control signal, when a funeral procession being conducted in compliance with 61-1-413 through 61-1-415 and 61-8-380 through 61-8-384 is proceeding through a red traffic-control signal at that intersection as permitted by 61-8-380 unless the driver can do so without crossing the path of the funeral procession.
