It's time to put an end to distracted driving and it starts with Maria's Ride.
The event is designed to honor Maria Tiberi's life and highlight two significant landmark milestones that helped shape her life.
A procession of 300 cars will start at Dublin Coffman High School (her alma mater) and end at the Schottenstein Center on The Ohio State University campus.
Registration is at 8 a.m. and the ride will kick off at 9 a.m. The closing event will be from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Every dollar raised will go to The Maria Tiberi Foundation. These funds go to purchasing distracted driving simulators and creating a driving school curriculum to educate young drivers to make the roads safer for everyone. Dom Tiberi has made it his mission to visit numerous local high schools and share his story with more than 70,000 students.
