Here's an article on how hard it is to get a license in Germany, where roads are infinitely safer than here in the U.S.: How Getting a German Drivers' License Almost Broke Me
Great job getting this video out, hopefully ppl will think twice, before getting near any Tesla and not take a chance parking or driving near by them.....you need to post this on YouTube also, get the word across
It is just so annoying how careless and inconsiderate people are. She had to know she hit the car. I’m sure it made some sort of impact or sound. And if this driver couldn’t tell that they hit a vehicle, couldn’t perceive the hit, they should not be operating a vehicle.
In most countries the state both decides what punishment is appropriate and executes it. This prevents certain problems seen in weaker states, such as revenge killings and feuds. See also Monopoly on violence - Wikipedia
Oh but it is. Everyone who doesn't put one on say, 'It ruins (pick one: the lines, looks, aerodynamics).' I say, it's the law, I put one one. It's like speeding... when people say they've never been caught. Doesn't make it legal and boo hoo when you get a ticket for it.
They are mandatory in CT. Rather than the Tesla supplied plastic thingie with dbl sided tape, easy to pull off, I bought "The Law" from Evenex, which secures far better and mechanically. I, actually, thought they are mandatory in most states, certainly Mass, RI, CT, VA, DE, OH (I recollect serves).
I do not see the value of the 'perp' the thing, as most people don't follow this forum. I view the value being "see!, it actually creates actionable video". Frankly, I thought the quality of the images from those cameras being really third rate. I thought that was quite good video.
I cannot speak for west coast insurance rates but they are hideously expensive on the east coast. Anything that would lower them is a very good thing.
No, that’s not correct, the system starts recording from either cars driving by or people and started recording before her car was even in view
Yes, Thanks, I noticed that too. That doesn't necessarily mean anything other than really bad depth perception. I just cant get beyond just ignoring it. I bet the baby in the back was screaming their little lungs out. There's a part of me that sympathizes with these moms that have to drag a toddler or baby around with them where ever they go. That's a downside to women who chose to have a child san the father. But that's for another forum.
She obviously knows she hit it because she stopped pulling forward and backed up a bit She obviously knows she hit it because she stopped pulling forward and backed up and then she was looking directly at the damage for a long time
Please be sure to update this thread as the situation plays out. I have to leave my Model S in the airport employee lot for days at a time. I’m so glad to FINALLY have Sentry Mode!
Do remember it keeps the car from sleeping. Not a big deal if the airport is close, the trip isn’t too long, or there is a supercharger nearby. But something to consider.
The car is recording ALL the time, but to trigger the 10 min saved event, you need a human to be closed by on the sides or in the front. When it detects a human close by, it moved the current min and the previous 9 min from the RecentClip folder to a saved folder in the SavedClip folder. So if she didn't park there, it would not have triggered the "save" so the clips will stay in the RecentClip folder and eventually get overwritten. However, if she moved to a different spot, another car could pull in and that driver would come out and triggered the "save". And that "saved" folder would contain the previous 10 min. So if another car pull into that parking spot within 10 min, OP will still have the clips of the event in a saved folder!
You probably missed this? Police report filed, driver's info and insurance info acquired. Sounds like a done deal to me. Sentry Mode Catches Hit in Parking Lot
It should be every time you park in a location that is not a designated trusted location so that you can create an exception for your garage and save on USB storage space.
