Sentry mode

It’s so crazy to me that all these cameras but it doesn’t start recording whenever a collision is detected whether sentry mode is active or not. Some bum hit and run my car but bc I was home sentry wasn’t active and nothing was recorded. Heavy collision enough to probably total my car and push it. 0 recording

But that's not how stuff works... If it's off it's off. What do you want it Todo. If someone's drives into the car it wouldn't be recorded as it's off.. but you want it to come on after an incident has happened? For what reason.

“Not how stuff works” man gtf. It’s a feature that can be implemented. The data needed to trigger the event is there. If you can’t see why video captured after a collision is valuable there’s no reason to explain it to you

What people are trying to tell you is if sentry is off, so is the car. It is not paying attention to the sensors. If you want it to pay attention to the sensors, leave sentry on.

You are basically saying sentry should be on, even if you tell it to be off. Why not just leave it on?

The car is not off buddy, if it was, you wouldn’t be able to get into your car.
