Reddy, can you explain how that worked? I guess that is my biggest concern with a dash cam and capturing some criminal act(s). At least here in Vegas, our police force doesn't have the time or the interest to deal with small scale mischief. Even if a license plate is visible on the offending car, or the face of the perp who keyed you...our local LEO just shrugs and apologizes.
How do you deal with a minor criminal event after the fact if law enforcement is essentially ambivalent?
Actually the police were EXTREMELY interested. They almost NEVER make an arrest after keying a car, and having the video handed to them on a USB key was handing it to them on a silver platter.
The person who was in the video was known to me, so that made their job even easier. Even so, the police does have mugshots of a large number of the population and they can match in some cases.
Finally, in Texas any damage like this over $2500 is a felony. Obviously keying a Tesla Model S on the left front and rear door and left rear quarterpanel is well over $2500. They don't ignore felonies.
