Halloween is that day of the year when children flood city and neighborhood streets in the pursuit of candy. It's also the worst day of the year for pedestrian-related accidents. It's important to use caution and slow down when you're driving in neighborhoods and residential areas.
By driving slower, you ensure that you're able to stop faster and have more time to respond to the road. This can be important when small children are near the road. The extra time that you have to stop can save their lives and will ensure that you have a safe driving Halloween season.
You should also consider leaving your lights on, even if it's not night. Likewise, be cautious around parked cars, as children can unexpectedly exit or enter them.
