Systems and methods of configuring and using a machine-learned safety risk model to predict a corresponding risk of vehicular collision for different candidate routes are disclosed herein. In some example embodiments, a computer system obtains accident data and feature data for historical routes that have been communicated electronically as navigation guidance, trains a safety risk model using the accident data and the feature data of the historical routes as training data in a machine learning process, and then evaluates one or more routing algorithms by generating a corresponding set of routes for each routing algorithm and generating a corresponding performance measurement for each set of routes using the trained safety risk model.
