Trick‑or‑treat traffic changes the feel of familiar roads. Expect heavy foot traffic around 6–10 p.m., sudden mid‑block crossings, and glare from decorations. Before you roll, set up your mirrors and dim your dash; then plan your first stop or pick‑up. If you need an airport pickup near the parks, our car rental at MCO keeps your plan simple and quick.

See sooner, stop sooner

Use low beams in lit neighborhoods and reserve high beams for dark, empty stretches; auto high‑beam systems help, but you remain responsible. Clean your windshield inside and out, and slow 5–10 mph below the limit when children are present. With Hola Car Rentals, you can choose an All‑Inclusive+ rate with maximum coverage so you focus on the drive, not fine print.

ADAS features that earn their keep

  • Automatic Emergency Braking: Helps reduce impact if someone steps out between parked cars.
  • Pedestrian Detection: Adds visual/audible cues near crosswalks and busy porches.
  • Lane Keeping Assist: Useful when glare and shadows hide edge lines.
  • Rear Cross‑Traffic Alert: Extra eyes when backing from a driveway or festival lot.

Keep sensors clear of bugs and leaves, and learn how to toggle systems quickly. In case your plans span coasts later this season, you can also compare car hire at LAX in one tap.

Parking and late‑night returns

Choose lots with attendants or cameras, avoid double‑parking on narrow streets, and lock the vehicle while you walk the block. For late shows on the Strip or after‑hours drop‑offs, routing to the garage before you arrive beats circling; use this as a practice run to your real exit.

Two more smart picks for seasonal trips: arrive with a full phone battery and designate a sober driver. Hola Car Rentals includes free cancellation up to 48 hours before pick‑up and travel insurance up to US$150,000 on selected itineraries—ideal when plans evolve.

Planning another fall weekend? Mark a safe rendezvous at Terminal 3 on the way back from shows using this Las Vegas hub, or stage beach‑day returns at this Miami hub before midnight: evening parking near the Strip and oceanfront airport returns. Wherever Halloween takes you, finish strong with clear routes and patient speeds.
