The Department of Fish and Game urges cautious driving in deer areas as autumn migrations begin. Nighttime hazards on mountain roads and deer crossing signs prompt the campaign Give wildlife a brake. Studies show over 8,500 deer die on highways annually, with total losses near 20,000 when off-road and unreported. Remedies include deer crossings and reflective mirrors to deter animals. Regions with high collision risk include US 101 in Sonoma and Mendocino, CA 150 near Cachuma, CA 70 through Feather River Canyon, CA 89 from Truckee to Sierraville, I-5 north of Redding, and I-80 from Auburn to the Nevada line.
