You are entitled to your opinion, but most rush hour vehicle traffic takes place on main thoroughfares which are few and far between residential streets where most kids will trick or treating.

On top of that you have the fact that rush hour typically has heavy traffic which actually would mean that vehicles should be moving slower if anything making it more safe than if it wasn't rush hour.

Then they should have just had it on Sunday evening then, because a lot of people who work in person aren't even going to be home or just getting home, and not ready to be on their front porch or take their kids out at that time.

You can see my comment I just made to someone else proposing the same idea. I personally wouldn't oppose it happening on a Sunday evening.

Sunday evening would probably be the best for the convenience of a majority of people, and also have the least traffic of any day of the week during the evening. Even last year though, they did not start in the city until 5:30 and it went until 7:30.
