We’re just about a week away from the end of daylight saving time on Nov. 6 and the next election (Nov. 8). But before all that, we’ve got some suggestions for making Halloween less scary on our roads plus these updates:

Halloween is almost here, let’s look out for one another
Starting this weekend with Halloween parties and continuing through Monday night, we are asking all Belmont residents to use extra care.

Plan ahead

-Help your kids choose costumes and shoes that do not restrict movement and can be easily seen in the dark. Use reflective fabric or tape,or bring along glow sticks to improve visibility.
-Use safe, non-toxic makeup rather than masks that can restrict vision.
-Talk to kids about good community behavior and the consequences of vandalism and other neighborhood pranks.

Drive safely

-Look out for more pedestrians than normal, including small children who might be more difficult to see.
-Slow down and give yourself extra time to get where you need to go.
- Be sure to enter and exit driveways slowly and carefully.
