With this week’s time change on Sunday, Nov. 4 at 2 a.m., Ohioans will gain an extra hour of sleep. It also means it is getting darker even earlier, reducing visibility and making it more important than ever for motorists to watch out for pedestrians during evening commutes, especially in residential areas and near school, according to Shelly Miller of MOVE Safe Allen County.
The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), along with local safety officials, is reminding motorists about the importance of pedestrian safety with the upcoming time change.
