Couple killed by drunk driver memorialized with ghost tire monument

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (KABC) — The community came together Saturday to remember a couple who died in a crash caused by a drunk driver.

A ghost tire was installed in their honor.

Two years ago, Ryan Davis and his girlfriend Asia Boatwright were killed after a drunk driver rear-ended their car during a chase traveling at over 80 miles per hour.

Since then, their families have become advocates for safer streets and joined the cause to address the problem of speeding and other traffic hazards in Los Angeles.

The ghost tire monuments are created by the road safety organization SAFE and serve as a reminder of speeding.
