Halloween is Friday and Indiana State Police have a few safety tips to help ensure everyone’s safety.
• Children should always be accompanied by adults.
• Older children should trick-or-treat in groups.
• Have a cellphone too.
• Never enter a residence to retrieve candy.
• Wear reflective tape on your costume or carry a flashlight or glow stick.
• Stay on the sidewalks and use extreme caution when crossing the street.
• Don’t eat candy until parents or an adult can inspect it.
• And only visit homes where the porch light is lit.
ISP officials also have some suggestions for those driving:
Drivers should slow down, especially in subdivisions and urban areas.
Use your bright lights when possible.
Don’t drive distracted!
And expect children crossing roadways.
In some places—including Vincennes—suggested trick or treat hours will be in place both tonight and tomorrow night.
