Buy a dashcam if you don't have one already. Saw an accident just the other day where the at fault lady was blaming the visibly upset lady that had been hit to the point she was in tears. Luckily it all happened in front of a city bus that got it all on camera. Otherwise the victim would have had a tough time proving otherwise.

I'm certain the answer is no, but is there anything that can be done with footage like this if OP had a dash cam and someone is clearly recklessly driving or is it only good in a case where you need to prove fault in an accident?
Even with footage of the reckless driving and the license plate I assume there's nowhere you could send it so the person could be ticketed or fined? I've seen so much abhorrently bad driving around Richmond in the last few weeks since moving back and it's insane that there's nothing to be done about it.

It's in case to prove fault in an accident. RPD doesn't care about reckless driving, or any driving infractions for that matter. In case of an accident, insurance companies will take that video, figure out who owns the vehicle, find their insurance, and recover the money needed to fix your car or pay for your medical bills.
TL:DR Police don't care, insurance companies do
