With Halloween right around the corner it's a good time to go over some safety tips for both trick-or-treaters and motorists alike.  Manitoba Public Insurance has released a list of ways that you can have a safe and happy Halloween this year!

 

For Trick-or-Treaters:

Don’t run out onto roadways.

Always look both ways and cross at corners or intersections.

Wear reflective clothing to make yourself more visible to motorists.

Walk facing traffic when there is no sidewalk.

 

For Motorists:

Don’t speed ─ motorists should slow down when they see children walking.

Don’t assume children see your vehicle. They are excited and could run out in front of you.

Watch for children who may dart between parked vehicles. Be prepared to stop.
