It’s almost that time of year when the ghouls come out to play and spine-chilling specters fill your neighborhood. Yes, Halloween is here and it’s time to dust off your creepiest costumes and get ready for a night of freakishly frightening frivolity!
Although Halloween should be about having fun, you also need to be aware of the safety risks around driving during the festivities, especially where kids are involved. Here are some of the dangers to watch out for – and how you can avoid them.
Plan Ahead
With busy roads and unpredictable traffic, it’s important to plan your Halloween route in advance and give yourself enough time to get there safely.
Don’t Take the Risk
Avoid driving after drinking; use a car service or a designated driver to ensure a safe return home.
Be Aware of Pedestrians
Expect more foot traffic on Halloween—especially children and people in dark costumes. Drive slowly, particularly in residential areas.
Alert Kids to Traffic Dangers
Ensure children are aware of safety when trick-or-treating, and equip them with visible gear like flashlights or reflective tape.
Mind Costume Distractions
Costumes can impair visibility and distract drivers. Consider hiring a car service for larger groups or elaborate outfits.
Be Cautious of Other Drivers
Even if you’re sober, others may not be. Stay alert and report erratic drivers to authorities.
