Halloween Safety — Tips and Guidelines
The Huntsville Police Department asks for the cooperation and increased awareness of all citizens this Friday,
October 31 during the observance of Halloween.
According to HPD Lieutenant Jim Barnes, adhering to the following guidelines can maximize the safety of all
involved.
• Proper Supervision— Parents/adults should closely monitor the activities of children near or
on the streets. Ideally parents should walk with children. Traffic congestion and risks to
pedestrians increase quickly when people drive from house to house or parents drive alongside
walking children.
• Attempt to outfit your children in costumes that are brightly colored or light reflective to
increase their visibility to motorists.
• Require children to wear costumes that allow them to move freely and don't restrict their

vision in any way. Some more elaborate or restrictive costumes may be better suited for parties
or other events or gatherings.
In addition to some type of reflective apparel, one or more person in walking groups should
carry and use a flashlight.
• When walking on the roadway when no sidewalk is present, pedestrians should walk on the
left side of the roadway, facing traffic.
Drivers are asked to use extreme caution due to the increased number of people and vehicles on the roads. In
addition to the above safety guidelines for pedestrians, there are several laws pertaining to the operation of
vehicles that may apply.
• Vehicle passengers should be properly seated in passenger areas of vehicles. Traffic laws
prohibit operation of vehicles with riders on running boards, on hoods/roofs/tailgates of vehicles,
in or on truck beds, or on trailers.
• All-terrain vehicle use on the roadway is prohibited.
• When driving on Halloween, motorists are asked to allow extra time in the event of
congestion encountered in their travels.
The Huntsville Police Department will have extra staff deployed for the observance of Halloween activities.
Officers will be promoting the safe enjoyment of activities as well as enforcement of violations when necessary.
For more information, contact HPD at (936) 291-5480. For after-hours assistance, contact the Walker County
Public Safety Communications Center at (936)435-8001.
