Tips for Safe Halloween Driving

Halloween is one of children’s favorite events! It's exciting and a little spooky!

To help keep trick-or-treaters as safe as possible drive slowly and be alert for children who may dart out into the street. Here is a checklist to make sure you car is safe for the big night.

1. Brakes
   A vehicle's brake system is the top priority on a vehicle, but brakes do wear out and eventually need replacement. Make sure they are working properly.
2. Windshield Wipers & Fluid
   Make sure that you are able to see everything clearly. We know kids have been told not to run into the street, but as exciting and as safe as we try to keep our children sometimes the unexpected does happen.
3. Vehicle Lights
   Check all of your vehicle's lights. It will be dusk if not dark when the littles are out running the streets, and your lights are the easiest way to make sure you're seen when driving the kids around.
4. Street Safety
   Help remind the kids to try and stay on sidewalks and have some sort of bright color or a glow stick to make them easily seen.
