    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    Quick update. So their insurance (Geico) contacted me to get my statement after 1.5 months and by then my car has already been fixed. They said the other party had informed them that my insurance has been going after him and that he requested an attorney. I told them they should not be...

    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    :)That's one of the main reason for my post. To bring awareness to others of how useful this feature is. It's a crappy feeling knowing you have to pay money out of your own pocket to fix damages caused by other people's carelessness. If it weren't for the footage, I'd have to end up paying...

    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    Update - The officer just called me about 10 minutes ago. He provided me with the other party's information to provide to my insurance. He said it's a tricky situation since neither car was moving. This makes it hard to charge them with a hit-and-run. He said since he couldn't get a hold of...

    Here you go. The paint was still fresh as I just picked up the car on Tuesday. So I literally had it only a few days before it happend. The door scraped off an entire chunk of clearcoat and paint.

    My claim's person assured me that my insurance will not go up as the footage shows I am not at fault. Not sure if this is based on different state laws or specific to the insurance provider or coverage level.

    Quick Update. Just received a call from my insurance claim person. He said he will waive my deductible as the footage is clear that the other party is liable. They will run search based on the person's license plate and vin# and reach out to them. I'm really surprised this thread is getting...

    Try again. Used to be that I can still share videos in private mode but looks like I have to update to "unlisted"

    Finally figured out how to do the blur on youtube. Still not super good at it but I think I blurred out enough to keep their privacy:

    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    Quick Update. Just got back from Sheriff's department. Had to wait outside until they can dispatch an officer to meet me in the Cupertino office and there was a Burglary in Saratoga so all the officers from Saratoga unit were there. A Cupertino officer came to help file the police report. He...

    Agreed. Even though I am super upset about the situation, the lady looks like she could be anyone's aunt or mother. Imagine if this is your family member getting exposed in public for something like this. Insurance informed me it is the owner of the vehicle that will be held liable in this...

    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    I think the best course as suggested by the officer I spoke with yesterday is to contact insurance and provide them with the footage. Also file a police report as the officer can help in getting them to accept fault and make it faster for your insurance to get them to settle. Will keep you all...

    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    Just got off the phone with my Insurance, and asked if I can post video of the footage and they told me definitely not do that. They said it can open up a can of worms in terms of lawsuits as the other party can be at risk from harassment by other people and they've also had incidences where...
