HALLOWEEN SAFETY TIPS - CHILDREN

• Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks

• Look left, right and left again when crossing and keep looking as you cross. A flashlight will help too.

• Put electronic devices down and keep heads up and walk, don’t run, across the street.

• Teach children to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them.

• Always walk on sidewalks or paths. 

• If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic as far to the left as possible. 

• Children should walk on direct routes with the fewest street crossings.

• Watch for cars that are turning or backing up. Teach children to never dart out into the street or cross between parked cars.
