Safety first...even--and especially--on Halloween!

On Halloween, pedestrian activity spikes, especially in residential neighborhoods. Motorists – slow down, stay extra cautious, and watch for children crossing mid-block. Pedestrians – carry a flashlight, add reflective elements to costumes, and use crosswalks when available.

Let's all get to where we're going safely!

Pedestrian Safety Month Week 4 Tip: Pedestrians – walk on sidewalks whenever possible. If no sidewalk is available, walk facing traffic and stay as far left as you can. Motorists – give pedestrians plenty of space when passing and slow down on narrow roads.

Pedestrian Safety Month Week 3 Tip: Heads Up, Devices Down. Distractions are dangerous for everyone. Pedestrians – keep your head up and remove earbuds when crossing the street. Motorists – never text while driving, and stay alert near sidewalks, intersections, and transit stops.

October is Pedestrian Safety Awareness Month. Thanks to our friends at the New Mexico Rail Runner Express for putting out this great campaign to remind us all about the importance of looking out for pedestrians and keeping safety in mind.

It's week one of Pedestrian Safety Month. Please remember, with shorter days and earlier sunsets, visibility is critical. Pedestrians should cross in designated areas and lit intersections when possible. Motorists – always use headlights at dusk and dawn and be alert for people walking in low-light conditions.
