I whole-heartedly agree.
And without wanting to labour the point, four years ago I was driving through a village in Canada on 11th November when I was stuck for about half an hour whilst the service took place at their local cenotaph. Not only all the traffic stopped, but also it looked like most of the village had turned up. It was very touching to see.
