Hold a flashlight while trick-or-treating to help you see and

others see you.

A lways stand back a step from the curb until it is time to

cross.

Look left, right and left again and check for turning cars

before and while crossing the street. Cross only at

crosswalks.

Lower electronic devices and keep heads up and walk,

don’t run, across the street.

Only walk on sidewalks whenever possible, or on the far

left side of the road facing traffic to stay safe.

Wear a highly visible or reflective costume or put reflective

stickers on clothing, trick-or-treat bags or toys.

Especially be sure to pay attention when walking past

driveways to make sure cars aren’t pulling in or out.

Eye contact with drivers to ensure they see you before

crossing in front of them is important.

Never cross when you see the countdown signal with the

red stop hand. Cross only when you see the “walking

man” signal.

FOR CHILDREN• Increase being seen by drivers. Wear something reflective on

your costume (nothing flammable).

• Carry a flashlight to light your way safely and help others see you.

• Walk, not run from house to house and use the sidewalk if available, rather than walk in the street.

• Watch out for cars, trucks and low-flying brooms before entering the street. Remember it may be hard for drivers to see you.

• Look for cars at driveways before crossing.

• Don't stop on the streets to check your treats. Have your parents do it at home when you meet.( Immediately report obviously tampered items and give it to police.)

• Limit your trick-or-treating to your own neighborhood. Trick-or-treat only at the homes that have porch lights on.

• Remember to say, “Thank You!” to the people who give treats and to the drivers who let you cross the street.

FOR PARENTS• Use a pre-planned, well lighted trick-or-treat route.

• Escort your children or designate a responsible older child to accompany the trick-or-treaters.

• Drive safely. Watch out for children when backing out of driveways. Use your headlights early and drive well below the posted speed limit.

• Leave your porch light on if you plan to participate in the festivities. Keep your walkways to your front porch clear.

• Give only commercially wrapped treats, coupons, gift certificates or coins.

• Inspect all treats brought home.
