“One of the first things I do when investigating a crash is obtain and preserve as much evidence as possible. Even before knowing all the parties involved, I immediately pull the RoadProof footage. Seeing the crash firsthand through the video is incredibly powerful. Having this video footage from the start really helps level the playing field between the plaintiff and the trucking company, which often delays or refuses to provide the truck camera video if at all.”

When you’ve been in a car accident, your phone buzzes with insurance questions, your neck starts hurting, and you realize, wait, wasn’t there a camera at that intersection? You’re not imagining things. Traffic cameras record thousands of accidents every day across America, and that footage could be the difference between an insurance company believing your story or denying your claim.
At RoadProof, we help drivers nationwide secure the camera evidence they need after accidents.
Most people don’t know this: MOST traffic cameras are never recorded. Even if there is the rare case that the video streams were recorded, it’s typically erased within days if not hours. Storage of that much video costs money, and most traffic management systems automatically overwrite old files.
Requesting traffic camera footage involves navigating a maze of city departments, county offices, and state transportation agencies. Each location has different forms, different fees, and different processing times.
Here’s what makes this process complicated: the camera you saw might belong to the city’s traffic department, the county sheriff’s office, your state’s Department of Transportation, or even a private company contracted for red-light enforcement.
The request process typically requires:
When you request footage yourself, you’re often transferred between departments five or six times. “That’s not our camera.” “You need to contact the county.” “Try the state DOT.”
Not every camera records usable accident footage. This surprises most drivers.
Traffic cameras come in several types. Some only take snapshots every few seconds for traffic flow monitoring—these won’t show your accident clearly. Others record continuous video but have limited angles that might miss the actual impact. Red-light cameras only activate when someone runs a light, so they won’t capture accidents that happen on green lights.
The best footage comes from:
Every state handles traffic cameras differently. Some states have extensive camera networks on every major highway. Others barely have any government-owned cameras at all.
States with comprehensive camera coverage include Georgia, California, Texas, Florida, New York, Nevada, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Washington. If your accident happened on a busy road in these states, there’s a good chance a camera caught it.
Rural accidents pose the biggest challenge. County roads rarely have camera coverage, and nearby businesses might be miles away.
It’s simple to find out if there is footage of your accident.

Before you even think about camera footage, protect yourself at the scene.
Once your attorney has your footage, it becomes powerful leverage with insurance companies. Insurance adjusters initially operate on he-said-she-said statements. If the other driver claims you ran a red light and you claim you had a green light, the adjuster might assign partial fault to both drivers. Your settlement drops by 30-50%.
Traffic camera footage removes all ambiguity. The video can show who had the green light. It could show which driver failed to yield. It might even prove if the other driver was texting, speeding, or ran a stop sign.
Insurance companies settle cases faster and for higher amounts when clear video evidence exists. They know they can’t argue against footage, and they don’t want to risk a jury seeing video that clearly shows their insured driver at fault.
If your personal injury case goes to court, traffic camera footage is often the most persuasive evidence you can present.
Juries trust video. They don’t have to decide who’s telling the truth; they can watch exactly what happened. Defense attorneys have a much harder time creating doubt when 30 seconds of clear video contradicts their client’s statement.
Your attorney will use footage in several ways:
High-quality footage from multiple angles provides even stronger evidence. If you have footage from both a traffic camera and a nearby business security camera showing different perspectives of the same accident, the defense has nowhere to hide.
Camera systems are improving rapidly. Ten years ago, traffic camera video was grainy, low-resolution, and hard to see. Many modern traffic cameras record in HD, capture license plates clearly, and store footage digitally.
Smart city initiatives are increasing camera coverage. Cities install cameras not just for traffic management but for public safety and urban planning. This means more accidents are being recorded than ever before.
Dashcam usage is exploding. As dashcams become standard in new vehicles and popular add-ons for existing cars, more everyday drivers have footage of accidents they witness. This creates additional evidence sources beyond government cameras.
