- PLACENAME: "The 5-mile segment of Route 99 south of its intersection with Route 70 in the County of Sutter is named the Bernie Richter Memorial Highway. In January 1998 Bernie Richter witnessed a vehicle lose control, crash into a bridge abutment just south of the intersection of Route 99 and Route 70 in the County of Sutter, and burst into flames. At this point Assemblymember Richter raced to the vehicle with his own fire extinguisher, and with the assistance of another good Samaritan, rescued the driver by pulling him out of the vehicle." - Source: cahighways.org
