When trick-or-treating, be sure to carry
a flashlight and wear retro-reflective tape
so that drivers can see you in the dark, says
Oregon AAA.
Oregon AAA reminds trick-or-treaters
how to be safe on Halloween. Choose a cos­
tume that won’t cause you to trip, is light-col­
ored, and has retro-reflective tape. A mask or
costume design should not restrict your ability to
see approaching cars.
Here are some Halloween safety tips form
Oregon AAA. Because the kids will be out in greater
numbers, motorists should drive more slowly and care­
fully than usual. Adults should accompany the costumed
creatures.Everyone should carry a flashlight and wear retro-
reflective tape on their costumes. That way, they can be seen
in the dark.

CAN MAKE HALLOWEEN SAFE
Drivers can help keep streets safe this Halloween despite
the throng of witches, ghosts, goblins and gremlins.
“ Behind the masks and costumes this Halloween will be
small children who may be more interested in running to the
next house than in watching for traffic,” said Oregon AAA
President Roger Graybeal. “ Motorists must help keep them
safe.”
Halloween is a dangerous time because of the increased
number of children on the street during dusk or evening hours,
Graybeal said. He advised motorists to be prepared for the
unexpected.
“ They should watch for children running out from be­
tween parked cars and be careful when making turns,” he
added.
Motorists should make sure their headlights are clean and
turned on at the first sign of dusk. They should drive carefully
and limit speeds in residential areas to 15 miles per hour.
Parents or older brothers and sisters should accompany
young children as they trick-or-treat, parents also should
remind their children about safety as they get them ready to hit
the street
Among the rules parents should discuss with children are
making sure they stay in familiar neighborhoods and along
well-lighted routes. Children also should be encouraged to
travel with a group of other children and to stay on the
sidewalk.
Oregon AAA also urges children to trick-or treat only
while it is still light or carry a flashlight if they plan to be out
at dusk. They should wear costumes that make it easy to walk
and be seen,use reflective tape where possible and take off
their masks before crossing the street
Concerned parents and others can pick up a list of Hallow­
een safety tips from Oregon AAA, Safety Department, 600
S.W. market Street, Portland, Oregon 97201.
