How Dash Cam Footage Changed the Outcome of an Insurance Claim

Last updated at: Jan 29, 2026

While driving home in San Diego, Angelica was involved in a sudden and unexpected collision.

A white car, positioned in a right-turn lane, abruptly attempted to make a left turn without warning. The maneuver caused an accident Angelica had no time to avoid.

In the immediate aftermath, the situation quickly turned against her. The insurance representative initially claimed Angelica was at fault. Without evidence, the claim was heading toward a costly outcome.

Angelica turned to her Nexar dash cam.

Using the Nexar app, she was able to quickly locate the exact moment of the accident and send the footage directly to her lawyer.  Once the video was reviewed, the narrative changed immediately.

The dash cam footage clearly showed what happened and who was responsible. The insurance company reversed its position.  Angelica soon received a call telling her when to pick up her check.

Her car had been totaled, but the footage meant she wasn’t left paying for an accident she didn’t cause. Instead, she was able to move forward and purchase a new car.

For Angelica, the outcome was clear. Without her Nexar dash cam, she believes she would still be paying off the accident and may not have had a car at all.

With it, she had proof when it mattered most.
