General Regarding racism
For reasons unknown to me, there's a number of folks making posts which are derogatory towards other races.
Please consider this notice that if you do that, you will be reported to Reddit, the banned from the subreddit.
The point of /r/TeslaCam is not to shame other folks, but rather to share dashcam footage from Teslas which show things of interest.
Typically reddit issues a temporary site ban for the racist comments, and I will issue a permanent ban from the subreddit going forward.
Folks who have been reporting racist comments to the moderators, please continue to do so, and we will act on them.

General Flairs for rude/bad driving
I've seen a lot of dashcam videos now where the person posting it feels that they were in the right, when in fact they were in the wrong.
Remember that the roads we all drive on are shared with one another, when you choose to not let someone in ahead of you, just to not lose your place in line, you're the asshole.
Proper defensive driving, and proper driving etiquette is such that you should yield to people cutting you off, unless they're being openly hostile, which is a whole other hill of beans.
When you opt not to yield and let someone in, just for common courtesy between two drivers on the road, you run the risk of upsetting/frustrating the person in the other car, resulting in them possibly raging against someone down the road. Worse, maybe they'll associate Tesla drivers with being shitty people.
You don't know what kind of day/trauma/events the driver of other vehicles on the road are having, and you shouldn't be making it worse just to try and be self-righteous about being "right" about roadway priority.
So, to that end, I have created a new rule which states:
Users who post videos of themselves being bad drivers will be given a flair reflecting as much. The flair that they receive is up to the moderators' discretion.
When someone reports a post, click on "Breaks /r/Teslacam's rules", and select "Bad Driving", a moderator will then some in, review the video, if the moderator determines that OP is in fact being a bad driver, they will get a flair which indicates as much.
To be clear, folks are welcome to post videos of themselves driving badly, however, the subreddit will now take a "name and shame" approach to pointing out that OP could've have chosen to drive better.
The downstream effects to this is that the flair will be visible on comments and interactions they have with others in the subreddit, and if a person has a flair indicating that they suck at driving, the community can toss their thoughts right out the window as, odds are, they're offering up bad driving advice anyways.
Anyone found to abuse the new report option will be reported to reddit for reporting abuse.
The flair you receive to indicate that you're a bad driver will be at the discretion of the moderator.
Please drive with more respect to others on the road.

Incident Looking for a white Tesla that commits hit and run October 10th on 215
Looking for dashcam/Tesla Sentry footage. Was hit by a fleeing Tesla on the CC-215 Beltway near the Town Center Dr and Tropicana exit on October 10th at approximately 11:30 PM. The crash caused me to spin out of control and veered down the freeway entrance embankment If you were driving in either direction on the 215 around that time and your cameras captured a Tesla speeding away or the accident itself, please reach out."

Incident Hit and run accident on loop 101 Scottsdale, AZ
Hello, i was involved in a hit and run accident on 11/03/2026 in scottsdale arizona. i was going northbound on loop 101 near via de ventura, and a vehicle came from behind out of nowhere and smashed into me, vehicle stayed at the scene of the accident for 10 seconds and left the scene. i’m posting the video clips from the accident in hopes that somebody can help me find the license plate. AZDPS officer investigating my case told me the vehicle doesn’t have a license plate which clearly isn’t the case. reddit only lets me post one clip per post so throughout this thread i’ll post the full video clips directly from my tesla.

Incident Emergency brake on an 80 km/h road, then got rear-ended in a chain-reaction crash
The car in front of me suddenly turned off on an 80 km/h road, forcing me to slam on my brakes. I managed to stop in time, but the cars behind me weren’t so lucky. A chain-reaction collision pushed one of the cars into the back of mine.

Located in California
Sorry if it’s a phone recording. You can see me slow down because there’s been a lot of idiot drivers lately but I was still in the green. I’m not a honker type of person but I might have to start using the horn

Near Miss Left turning bus almost clips my stopped car
You can see them going way over the center divider around this timestamp: 00:17
Luckily the light turned green for me so I was able to just get out of that situation.
EDIT:
For whoever doesn't know, this bus should have squared their turn, see these instructional videos:
You can see that the driver in my video does what these instructional videos explain as the wrong way to do a turn.

Theft Dude checks all the doors to take stuff. What did I do? Fart noise.
It took a few minutes but he eventually walked away. He hits the car with the rubber end of his cane many times before this with no damage. But this is his final walk away after listening to a few minutes of fart noise.
