there’s not usually a well enforced curfew for trick or treaters or a designated time people start drinking grain alcohol, get your head out of your ass.
we’ve had a pretty solid trick or treat curfew for decades and while saturday is probably more day-drinky than a weekday surely there’s a temporal correlation with the amount of drunk drivers
your statement is reasonable, unlike who I’m replying to–in outright denial. curfews exist on paper but it being a holiday about shirking social convention i have my doubts of their effectiveness before we even get to the uselessness of police and infeasibility of enforcement in suburban sprawl. and yeah, people drunk drive more as nights go on, but holidays and earlier sunsets both exacerbate it. like, there’s a social convention to give booze to the parents escorting their kids trick or treating, of course there will be some overlap between the heap of drunks and latergrain treatlers
No way is drunk driving affecting kids that trick or treat from 5-7pm. Which are the usual hours for actual kids to be out that day.
What are you saying? Are people not driving between 5-7pm?
they mean they’re probably not drunk driving before dinner, which sounds reasonable for years when halloween is a weekday
and people say the prohibition didn’t do anything
