Halloween events can lead to high foot traffic in local parking lots and business entrances across Tennessee. With extra families and young pedestrians out enjoying the season, drivers need to slow down, eliminate distractions, and stay vigilant, especially when pulling in or backing out of parking spaces.

If you’re walking or taking family to a fall event:
Always stick to marked crosswalks or designated walkways.
Make sure you and your children are visible as it gets dark earlier.
Assume drivers don't see you until you make eye contact.
