(And remember to use reflective tape, even on bikes, and brooms and the edges of your cape!)<\/li>\n<li>Whether you walk, slither or sneak, do it on the sidewalks and not\u00a0in the street.<\/li>\n<li>As you roam through the neighborhood collecting your treats, please\u00a0look both ways before crossing the street! (And speaking of streets, the corners are the place for trick or treaters to cross no matter their pace.)<\/li>\n<li>Wigs, capes and costumes are flammable attire, so avoid open\u00a0flames to prevent a fire!<\/li>\n<li>Use a glow stick instead of a candle so your jack-o-lantern isn&#8217;t a\u00a0 safety gamble!<\/li>\n<li>You may fly on a broom or a space ship from Mars, but please be on the lookout for drivers in cars!
