Many kids will be walking around neighborhoods tonight for trick-or-treat.
AAA is offering some tips to stay safe. The travel agency says…
- Stay together: AAA recommends that parents accompany young trick-or-treaters
- Choose costumes wisely: Make sure your child is visible by selecting a light-colored costume, or by adding reflective tape.
- Always walk on sidewalks, if available. If there are no sidewalks, walk as far to the left of the road as possible, facing traffic. Give everyone a glow stick or flashlight to help them see and be seen by drivers.
- Cross streets only at the corner, and never between parked cars or mid-block. Look left, right, and left again, and be sure approaching cars come to a full stop before stepping into the roadway.
