Obtaining Video Footage After an Accident

Having an auto accident can be a stressful time for everyone. At the time of an incident, drivers are typically focused on the safety of those involved and getting vehicles moved out of traffic. Gathering important information can be overlooked. When the time comes to turn the claim in and talk with an adjuster, recalling what occurred may be difficult and details can get missed. Obtaining any available video footage can be very helpful for both the insured and the insurance company during the claims resolution process. With this technology being commonplace in today’s vehicles, many manufacturers have cameras that record, drivers may have dash cams, Tesla equips their vehicles with four cameras, etc. After an accident, customers should secure any video footage before it may get overwritten. Remember to gather video footage when available, it can lead to a smoother claims process for everyone.
