It has been a long tradition to bring children out to trick-or-treat through their town and collect as much candy as they possibly can. It is a time for kids to dress up as their favorite cartoon, monster, witch, or princess. Halloween also signifies the end of October and the beginning of holiday season for many cultures. It is also a time to get together with family and enjoy the harvest season. While most of us go out to celebrate the end of October this Halloween, the personal injury attorneys at Malman Law want to remind drivers and pedestrians to be aware of safe practices while children collect the mounds of candy that they have long anticipated throughout the year—because every kid deserves to return home safely to enjoy and count their bags of candy.
“On average, children are more than twice as likely to be hit by a car and killed on Halloween as other days of the year.” (SafeKidsWorldwide)
The National Safety Council recommends that on Halloween all drivers should:
The CDC released some valuable safety tips for children and adults when celebrating Halloween. While you go out and enjoy physical activity and collect treats, also be aware of the following safety tips that can prevent serious injuries or even fatalities.
Most of all, Malman Law wants all of Illinois to have fun this Halloween. If you or a loved one do end up hurt, Illinois injury lawyers first recommend that you receive proper medical treatment and to then contact a personal injury attorney to learn about your legal rights to compensation.
Happy Halloween from the attorneys and staff at Malman Law!
