This Sunday, the clocks fall back an hour.

It feels like a small thing. An extra hour of sleep, a slightly darker afternoon. But for anyone who drives home after work, it means the commute you have done in daylight all summer suddenly happens at dusk.

And dusk, in early November, is exactly when deer are moving.

Fall is mating season. Deer travel farther than usual and pay far less attention to roads and headlights. Many insurance companies and highway safety groups have noticed that collisions climb in the weeks after the time change, when our schedules shift but theirs do not.

A few things are worth remembering.

Where there is one deer, there are often more. If one crosses in front of you, slow down and expect another to follow.

Stay in your lane. Swerving is instinct, but it can send a car into a tree or oncoming traffic, which is often far more dangerous than the deer itself.

Use your high beams on dark country roads when there is no car coming the other way. They light up eyes at the roadside much sooner.

Be extra careful on roads that run along woods and fields, and near those yellow deer crossing signs. They are posted where deer have crossed before.

None of this is meant to make you nervous about driving. It is just a good week to leave a few minutes early and drive a little slower.

Slow down at dusk this week.
Turn on high beams on empty country roads.
Share this with someone who drives home after work.

The time change happens in one night. It takes the rest of us a little longer to adjust, so give yourself that extra margin.

Make sure to set your clocks back one hour before you go to bed tonight, as Daylight Saving Time ends. This change will give you an extra hour of sleep, but remember to check your devices, as some may update automatically. Enjoy the extra hour!

Amen
