Halloween Safety Tips
- Opt for face paint and makeup over of masks, as masks can obstruct a child’s vision.
- Carry glow sticks or flashlights to ensure visibility to drivers.
- Add reflective tape or stickers to costumes.
- When crossing streets, do so at corners, using crosswalks and traffic signals when available.
- Make sure the driver sees you – make eye contact.
- Watch for cars backing up – they may not see you.
- Young children under 12 should be accompanied by an adult while trick-or-treating and should not be out alone.
- Drivers, please use extra caution during peak trick-or-treating hours
