No wonder I couldn't find the option to edit lol.

Will do.

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...

:)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...

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:

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...

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...

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...

Just want to offer update. I was informed I can file police report yesterday evening at San Jose sheriff's office. However when I got there, they told me I need to file in Cupertino Sheriff's so although I reported them and gave license plate info, I still have to go there in person to file it...

Not sure the legality of posting the footage online as you can see the person's faces and license plate. I'd rather not chance it as it might risk some privacy issues as I've also stated location of the incident.

I only had ceramic coat on the car but did not even get a chance to get it reapplied since I got my car back from body shop this past Tuesday. I literally only had my car back less than a week and paint was still not fully cured. The entire chunk of clear coat and paint came off the car from...

So I was the one that got side swiped a few months ago in my model 3 and the TeslaCam somehow corrupted the last minute footage where the accident happened. My car ended up being in the shop for over a month and just got it back on tuesday. Today I went out with my girl in Saratoga and came...

Unfortunately not a lot of us are aware of that. And after an accident, we're not always thinking with the clearest mindset. I was under the assumption that pressing the icon to stop the recording will immediately save everything up until that point like my old dashcam. My first reaction was...

Sorry about your loss! It's crazy how wreckless some drivers are. The worse part is the missing footage can potentially work against you as now you have to explain to insurance why you have footage leading up to right before the accident which can look extremely fishy in their eyes. If...

Just saw your video, definitely informative. It may be what happened to me. The moment I tapped the icon to stop recording, it showed the red dot disappear and I immediately pulled the usb. I believe it was less than 23 seconds and my fear is that I removed the USB before the file has been...

There wasn't one. There was a firetruck with an officer (in Sunnyvale, California, Police officers are also Firemen) who came by to check if we were ok. I asked for an officer so we can get a report and he called one but claims that there's not much they can do as it is just both our...

Thanks bud, it really is gutwrenching knowing your new car is damaged by someone driving wreckless. Had the footage been recorded, I would feel more at ease but because it is missing, and the witness' statement seems to support the other driver, there's a chance I can get dinged for something...

Good call. The last 3 minutes of the footage shows the prius to the left of me that I almost hit when I was sideswiped from the right by the driver. It also shows the car behind him but not sure what the law is regarding reaching out to them somehow as witnesses. I'll ask my insurance claims...

No, it wasn't just 3 minutes saved. It was a total of 15 minutes. The last 3 minutes of the drive is when his car came into the picture. The entire drive literally shows me staying in a single lane going speed limit. Within the last 3 minutes, his car came into the picture and immedaitely...

Will do. This will be a nightmare for my insurance as the witness said he saw my car hitting his a second time and that it was just a weird situation as we hit twice and looks like I was trying to get in his lane (I was going straight and my destination was on my left side). I tried to explain...

I wasn't aware of pressing and holding it to turn off. I only tapped it thinking it will stop the recording. Afterwards I immediately removed the usb. I think tapping it before it finished recording the 1 minute loop must've somehow corrupted the last minute of footage. I will try and bring...

I did indeed find the .MP4 files but they were the same ones that were recorded on my TeslaCam. It all recorded up until the accident. I saw a file named "recent-front-" with the date of today. However, when I attempted to play it with VLC media player, It turns out to be a clip from the...

I tapped the icon and the red dot disappeared from the cam but did not see the checkbox. At the moment I was in shock and immediate reaction was to stop the recording after I pulled over to make sure nothing gets overwritten. My initial thought was the clip must be missing because Tesla must...

So I just got into an accident a few hours ago. Driver and witness claimed I was going into his lane but he side swiped me and cause my car to lose control and almost hit the car to the left of me and while trying to regain control of the vehicle, I swerved right an we collided a second time...
