Tesla vehicles can do all sorts of impressive things performance-wise, but who knew that they were also adept at helping law enforcement authorities solve crimes? Just a few days after a Tesla dashcam video helped prove that a reckless driver was lying about an accident he caused, NBC Bay Area reports that video recorded from a Tesla helped police identify and arrest a suspect involved in a hit-and-run in Los Gatos, California.
The incident in question went down on July 4 and involves a pickup truck illegally crossing lines on a two-lane highway in an effort zoom ahead of a Tesla. Upon trying to merge back into the proper lane, however, the truck rams into the Tesla and then proceeds to speed up and zoom off.
