Some say more sleep.
Don’t forget that the clocks go back an hour at 2 a.m. on Sunday November 1 as daylight saving comes to an end.  The return to standard time means fewer daylight hours and reduced visibility.

When visibility is reduced, people and objects on the road are harder to see.  Whether you’re driving, walking, or cycling, obey all traffic signals, traffic rules, and remain cautious.

In Toronto, pedestrian collisions increase by more than 30 percent during the evening hours from November to March.

To draw attention to the increased risks facing pedestrians and cyclists, the City of Toronto is launching a city-wide public education campaign that promotes road safety as we enter a season with reduced daylight hours.

The campaign intends to remind everyone to be aware of each other as they share the city’s roads. The City is reminding drivers: that when driving, please slow down and turn slowly. Always stay alert.

Make sure vehicle headlights and signal lights are functioning properly. Obey speed limits and approach all crosswalks, intersections and transit stops with caution.

And give yourself plenty of time wherever you’re going and plan your route in advance. Also use public transit when possible.

And always change your batteries while you are at it.

Toronto Fire Services recommend changing the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors when the clocks change.
