Yeah, I'm about the same with the wiper settings myself. My Stealth windshield is also at a very sharp angle so I know what you mean by the distortion here; however, the camera is easily within the wiper's path so I know if I can see, then the camera can as well. But, with the Civic, that damn widow's peak looks like it will create a decent sized blind spot. I'm starting to think this is something a little Rain-X may be able to help compensate for. Anyhow, thank you for your insight.

not exactly a dash cam, but it's the tesla sentry cam catching a vandal keying the car. @sunofwolf still think security cameras are useless?

The following incident happened in Dorschester, Massachusetts last Thursday. Initially, it shows a man wearing black clothes entering a Target store at 9:16 a.m. that morning. Fast forward to 10:34 a.m. and the man can be seen walking towards the Tesla with headphones in and pulling a set of keys out of his pocket. Very subtlety, he sticks out his arm as he walks down the side of the Tesla, keying it from just in front of the front door all the way to the middle of the rear door. As he walks away, he looks back at his handiwork, perhaps admiring his “handiwork”. The owner of this particular Model 3, filed a police report shortly after the incident and provided authorities with the video as evidence.

In the months since Tesla introduced the Sentry model for the Model 3, the system which uses the car’s various cameras has captured numerous incidents of people vandalizing cars or breaking into them. It has become so common that we would have thought would-be criminals would know by now that, if they approach a Tesla suspiciously, they can be assured that the car will record whatever they’re doing.
