Late-Night Collisions in Richmond
Nighttime driving, particularly in urban areas like Hull St, presents additional hazards due to reduced visibility, potential driver fatigue, and a higher likelihood of impaired driving. The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles reports that a disproportionate number of serious injury and fatal crashes occur during overnight hours.
Busy corridors such as Hull St also see a mix of local and through traffic, increasing the chance of conflicts at intersections like E 36th St. Safety officials recommend reducing speed, increasing following distance, and remaining vigilant for unexpected movements from other drivers or pedestrians, especially at night.
Richmond continues to focus on reducing nighttime crash rates through enhanced enforcement, DUI checkpoints, and public awareness campaigns.
