Each week, we map cyclist and pedestrian crashes in the District.

The source for this data is Struck in DC, which has been tracking crashes on Twitter since June 1. While it is not a comprehensive listing of all pedestrian and cyclist incidents on our city’s streets, Struck in DC does keep tabs on reports from DC Fire/EMS and other sources. If you know of a crash that wasn’t mapped here, report it to Struck in DC. For a tally of Struck in DC crashes we have recorded, please view the spreadsheet.

“Safety is number one at DDOT…The pedestrian is the most vulnerable because they’re the slowest and they have no armor. The cyclist is second-most vulnerable. And so you really have to…make sure that you’re protecting the most vulnerable people first.” - DDOT Director Gabe Klein on the Kojo Nnamdi Show, August 4, 2010.
