Halloween is just around the corner, and AAA Texas is reminding everyone to stay vigilant for safety. With festivities falling on a weekend this year, expect more families and children to be out in neighborhoods for trick-or-treating. This increases the importance of paying attention, whether you’re behind the wheel or walking from house to house.
Stay Safe on the Roads
Drivers should slow down in residential areas and be prepared for children who may cross streets unexpectedly. Avoid distractions such as using your phone or eating while driving. AAA Texas also encourages everyone to drive sober and plan ahead if attending Halloween parties.
Tips for Trick-or-Treaters
Parents should remind children to use crosswalks, carry flashlights, and wear bright or reflective costumes to enhance visibility. Party hosts should offer non-alcoholic drinks and help guests arrange safe transportation home if needed. With the right precautions, everyone can enjoy a fun and safe Halloween.
