🎃 Halloween Safety Reminder for Drivers & Pedestrians 🎃

Halloween means more ghosts, goblins, and trick-or-treaters out and about tonight— so please use extra caution on the roads!

🚗 For Drivers:
1️⃣ Be alert for trick-or-treaters and pedestrians.
2️⃣ Slow down and scan the road — slower speeds save lives.
3️⃣ Watch for children in unexpected places; they may dart into the street without warning.
4️⃣ If you spot a drunk driver, contact law enforcement immediately.

🚶 For Pedestrians:
5️⃣ Use a “buddy system” — don’t walk alone.
6️⃣ Follow traffic rules and obey all signs and signals.
7️⃣ Cross only at crosswalks or intersections and look in all directions, including for turning cars.

Let’s keep Halloween fun and safe for everyone. 🎃👻
