For many, Halloween is great fun, but we must not forget that safety should come first for both drivers and child pedestrians.

Pedestrian Safety Tips for Halloween

  • Trick or treaters should be accompanied by at least one adult and should stay on a sidewalk or in an area designated for pedestrians.
  • Use caution when crossing driveways, streets, or alleyways.
  • Carry a flashlight and make sure that you are visible. Include reflective tape in your costume or on one of the props that you are carrying so that drivers can easily spot you.
  • Never cross a street anywhere except for a pedestrian crossing.
  • Pay attention to the road at all times and avoid distractions.
  • Do not assume that a driver can see you just because the driver is stopped. Make eye contact with the stopped driver before crossing the street.
