News Comment #11: “It’s Halloween. Beware Urban Legends (and Cars).”
American children are more likely to be hit by cars on Halloween than on any other night of the year. Instead the concerns expressed each October in the news media and among families are about the danger from candy poisoning by strangers. The average Halloween, compared with other nights, resulted in four additional pedestrian deaths. Looking specifically at 4-to-8-year-olds, the pedestrian fatality rate was 10 times higher on that night compared with non-Halloween nights.
I liked the idea of this post but the organization wasn’t the best. The author, in my opinion jumped around between unsafe candy to pedestrian accidents on Halloween. It mostly talk of candy poisoning, not a whole lot on children in the streets getting hit by more cars on this night out of the entire year.
