After the Denver Nuggets championship parade wraps up on Thursday there will be a much different type of parade in Denver on Friday… A parade of hearses.

The Colorado Department of Transportation is hosting a parade with a fleet of hearses that will drive through high-traffic areas of Denver.

According to a press release from CDOT, the procession is meant to “highlight the grave reality” and remind Coloradans to always wear a seatbelt “or a ride in a hearse could be in your future.”

The parade will follow a press conference at 1 p.m. at the CDOT Headquarters.
