I must admit I never really think about my death and definitely not the sort of hearse I would like to have my coffin transported in.
This did though change on a recent visit to Sicily. Whilst sitting outside a cafe drinking a beer the above fantastic looking Maserati hearse drove by. Everybody stopped to look and take pictures of it as it looked stunning.
I have now convinced myself that when I do sign up for a funeral plan I will see if I can tick the Maserati hearse option.
The only downsides are that hearses normally only go at 20 MPH so would be a waste of its high performance engine.
Also Maserati’s have a reliability question mark and it would be embarrassing if it broke down en route to the cemetery.
Not being a biker I do recall passing a motorbike that had a sidecar fitted so that it could do funerals.
The only driverless car point to note is that I would foresee that a driverless hearse/mourners car would probably relieve some of the stress that the undertakers driving the vehicles get during funerals as they would no longer need to be in the cars.
Driverless Cars will never take off
