Halloween is a great holiday celebrated by children and adults alike. It's also one of the worst nights for pedestrian-related accidents. Here's some advice for drivers and parents to help you keep yourself and your community safe on Halloween.
Recommendations for drivers:
- Watch for children. They might not see you coming.
- Drive under the speed limit so you can have more time to brake.
- Be careful when approaching parked cars. Children may exit them unexpectedly.
- Keep your lights on, even if you're driving during the day. You'll be more visible.
Recommendations for parents:
- Review safety rules with your children.
- Use reflective tape and flashlights to improve your children's visibility.
- Travel in groups to improve visibility.
Be safe and have a great a Halloween. If you have any car questions related to Halloween safety, contact Town & Country Ford in Charlotte, NC.
