Quote:
Here everyone pulls over to the side of the road and stops for an ambulance or a hearse. It's a respect thing. Also we take our hats off if we see the American flag, a hearse or funeral procession. We had a soldier come home from Afghanistan last year that had died in the war there and there were thousands (And I do mean thousands) of people lining the four lane highway holding their hats in their hands as the procession went by. We had walked the two tenths of a mile from our house to the highway, thought we would be the only ones in our rural area there but almost everyone that lives on our road was there.
We might be backwards in a lot of ways, but I'm still proud to be from the south.
I used the ambulance sentence to illustrate the pronunciation, not the action.
