Hundreds of Southern Arizona cyclists took part in the funeral like procession ride that underscores the implications of distracted driving.
"It shows what a moment of distraction can do and a lifetime of regret," says executive Director, Brendan Lyons of LOOK! Save a life.
The organization, LOOK! Save a Life teamed up with Greater Arizona Bicycling Association (GABA) to spread awareness.
Family and friends gathered to remember their loved ones.
