 Halloween Safety Tips
Halloween is creeping up on us. The City of Hurst wishes everyone a safe and happy Halloween experience. Take a minute to read these seven tips to make sure you and your family stay safe while trick-or-treating.
-
Trick-or-treat with trusted neighbors. Walk neighborhoods you are familiar with and only visit well-lit homes.
-
Carry flashlights to help make sure you are easily seen.
-
Turn on headlights early to spot kids from further away.
-
Dress to impress…..safely. Make sure costumes and candy bags or pails are reflective. Costumes shouldn’t drag too far on the ground to avoid tripping, and masks, hats, and shoes should be well-fitting.
-
Watch for kids. If you plan to be driving during trick-or-treat hours, watch for children walking on roadways, medians, and curbs. Be sure to enter and exit driveways carefully.
-
Stay on the path. Don’t stray from the well-marked routes to get to the candy. Always use the sidewalk, and do not cut across yards or use alleys. Wherever possible, cross the road at a crosswalk.
-
When in doubt, throw the candy out. Avoid candy that has loose wrappings, is completely unwrapped, has puncture holes, or is homemade and not factory-wrapped.
Boo safe out there and have fun!
