This Sunday, witches, goblins, cartoon characters and perhaps even a past president or two will be making their way through your neighborhood. In order to receive all of your visitors safely, it is important to:
- Remember that young children will be very excited on Halloween night and may dart into the road faster than a parent can hold them back;
- Drive slowly with your lights on, even before dusk;
- Put down your cell phone and do not let anything distract your attention from the road;
- Exercise extreme caution at driveways and intersections;
- Refrain from driving if at all possible;
- Stay within an arm’s reach of children if you accompany them trick or treating; and
- Make sure to wear reflective patches or clothing when you are trick or treating.
Don’t let Halloween magic end in a tragic car accident. Instead, enjoy the holiday safely by following the tips described above.
