The OPP wishes everyone a safe and happy Halloween
The Ontario Provincial Police are reminding residents to stay safe this Halloween, with trick-or-treaters and partygoers expected to be out Saturday night.
OPP Const. Martyn Curran says children should wear bright, reflective clothing and carry flashlights or glow sticks to improve visibility after dark.
He says most importantly, never enter a stranger’s home or vehicle while you’re trick-or-treating.
Drivers are also being urged to slow down, avoid distractions and watch for children crossing between parked vehicles.
With Halloween falling on a Saturday, parties and social gatherings may also increase the risk of impaired driving.
The OPP will continue conducting roadside RIDE checks, with checks increasing during special occasions.
