How to share dashcam footage with the police

Dashoo can help you find, protect and share a video when you choose to report dangerous driving. The reporting process depends on your country and police force.

Important: never use your phone while driving. Dashoo does not automatically report incidents, decide whether an offence occurred or guarantee that footage will be accepted or acted on.

Protect the original journey

As soon as it is safe, protect or lock the relevant journey in Dashoo. Keep the original file and do not rely on a cropped or edited copy as your only version.

Write down the details

Note the date, time, location, direction of travel and a factual description of what you saw. Avoid guessing about a driver’s intention.

Use the correct reporting route

Find the current reporting instructions for the relevant police force or country. Some routes use an online form, while others may request an email or a file-upload link.

Share the footage

Use Dashoo’s share or export action, then attach the video or provide the requested link. The user submits the report themselves. Dashoo does not send a report directly to the police.

Keep your records

Keep the original file, a copy of the message or reference number, and the date you submitted it. Follow any further instructions from the reporting organisation.
