Heading out trick-or-treating for Halloween? Wear bright colours, use glow sticks or reflective tape and arm bands, and carry a flashlight. Drivers—be extra cautious and slow down. There are lots of families and people out enjoying the night.  

Have a fab-boo-lous time!

🎃 The streets are buzzing, joy in the air, trick-or-treaters everywhere, so please take care. Drive slowly, stay alert, & plan ahead, so every ghoul & ghost gets safely to bed. Whether you're behind the wheel or out walking, let's keep the scares on the doorstep - not on our roads 🚗
