    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Yes, thats the link I used for my data request which was missing any relevant values. And yes, I agree that EDR would likely not have caught anything useful.

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    I am not after GPS data, moreso telemetry data (vehicle speed, accelerator position, etc). I do have timestamped photos immediately after the collision. If I had timestamped data that confirmed my car completely stopped for several minutes and did not resume moving until after the photos taken...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Yes, you can also see that their truck is oriented to the left which I think would indicate they were the ones trying to squeeze by me. If he had stopped to try to let me pass, his truck would logically be more orientated to the right to give me room to pass by.

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Sorry, I totally misdescribed it. My side was adjacent to the truck and I wasn't able to open my door. My passenger, however, was able to get out on her side adjacent to the rock wall. After the initial impact the truck immediately pulled forward more, continuing the scrape the car until the...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    I agree. It's weird that the cells for these data values are provided but just left blank. I've been going back and forth with Tesla corporate and Tesla service who are both shifting responsibility on each other to provide the data. Tesla is legally required to proved this information to...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    To answer your question, I did not move my vehicle after the collision. I instructed my passenger to get out of her side and take pictures of the collision (I was blocked in by the adjacent rock wall) before anyone could move their car. I stated this in an earlier reply. Photos have been...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    You're right, it's a hard truth I've come to accept and I was being naive to think I could hold them to a higher standard. Lesson learned. I guess I was more surprised that multiple fireman would give false statements to the police to avoid responsibility for a fender bender. Isn't that what...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    EDR data is timestamped. It records vehicle speed as well as impact. If it did record, it would show my car was stationary during time of impact. I am currently in the process of filing a civil claim. A judge would not look favorably on 4 witnesses each changing their story after sworn...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Even if it did not record an impact, at the very least, it would show my vehicle slowing down to a complete stop and not moving for several minutes until after the collision happened and the photos were taken (corroborated by the timestamped photos I have). It would debunk their story that I...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Does anyone know if obtaining the EDR data from the car would be useful?

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    It was to set the context of this post to explain why I needed the data.***

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    I did take photos! Unfortunately, this doesn't help my case.

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    I did adjust the data request to reflect UTC. Unfortunately, none of the useful values were recorded.

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    As soon as the collision happened, my passenger got out of the car (I couldn't open the door since I was adjacent to the rock wall) and took photos of the collision, before either of us moved our vehicles. They are not helpful in determining who hit who first.

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    I mentioned that the fireman is lying because any retrievable data would back up my story. I have the truth on my side. Trust me, I know telling the insurance companies that the fireman is a liar is not very helpful haha. It was to set the context of this post so I could get some advice on why I...

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Insurance is involved currently and I am filing a civil claim myself since I am an attorney. I am going to make it as difficult as possible for them and refuse to just roll over and let them screw me without a fight

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    The excel cells for Vehicle speed etc are blank all the way through, even at times when the car was in motion. It's as if it didnt record this data at all.

    Need advice on data retrieval after accident with lying Fireman

    Hey all- I'm new to this forum and am seeking some advice for a terrible situation I'm in. Last month I was driving my 2017 Model 3 to a hike in California. There was a narrow 2 lane road (one lane in each direction) going downhill to the trailhead parking lot. As I was driving down, I saw a...
