Halloween is one of the top three days for pedestrian crashes, especially involving children. "Children are twice as likely to be hit by a car on Halloween than any other night of the year," said Jana Tidwell from AAA. To stay safe, it's crucial that children can see everything and be seen themselves, emphasizing the need for awareness and precaution this holiday.
AAA suggests that parents should ensure their child is accompanied by an adult while trick-or-treating. Using glow sticks or flashlights can significantly improve visibility, which is essential for safety during the evening festivities. "Stay with a group, walk to the end of the street, cross at the crosswalk [and] cross at the stop signs," Tidwell advises, stressing safe practices for both children and parents.
