Police Offer Safety Tips For Halloween

Police are offering safety
tips to drivers and trick-or-treaters on Halloween.

Today is Halloween and officers encourage drivers to drive

slowly and not to pass stopped vehicles that may be dropping off
children. Drivers should also avoid using mobile phones while
driving and watch for children who may dart into the street.
Adults should teach children to look in all directions before
crossing a street and to cross only at corners and crosswalks.
Trick-or-treaters should also carry a flashlight and glow sticks
and wear reflective tape on their costumes.
Children should also be accompanied by an adult and be reminded
to never enter the home of a stranger.
