Questions

Richmond, VA — FAQ

Where does the Richmond, VA crash data come from?
Directly from official government open data: Virginia DOT — Crash Data (Virginia Roads open data portal). Police-reported collisions are published on the open-data portal (typically with a short processing delay) and we re-read it every 6 hours. This is real police data, not news reports.
How many car accidents happen in Richmond, VA?
In this latest sample of 150 police-reported crashes (2026-06-19 to 2026-06-30), 129 people were injured and 0 killed. Across the whole area, Richmond, VA records thousands of reported collisions per year.
Is this map real-time?
No. VDOT publishes crash records in quarterly batches, so the newest records here are usually two to three months old. We re-read the dataset every 6 hours, so new batches appear here the day they are published. For life-threatening emergencies always call 911 — this page is informational.
What can the crash pattern explorer show?
It filters the official records from the last 365 days (up to 5,000 of the most recent) by period, severity, collision type and a circle drawn on the map, and charts them by week next to a full-year monthly total from the portal's own counts. It counts recorded crashes only: without traffic volumes it cannot say how risky a street is, so it never ranks streets as safe or dangerous.
