Shadowing-Übung: Someone Hit My Tesla & I Caught It On Camera - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

So we basically can see this car approaching from afar, and then they come over, pretty much go on the line, and hit my...

That's right, you guys.

Someone hit my car.

It's pretty minor damage, but I got it all on camera.

So in this video, we're going to go over why a Tesla is the best car to have

if you get hit by someone, and what it's really like to get a Tesla repaired.

Also, stay tuned to find out how you could win a performance Tesla Model X at omaze.com slash shelbychurch.

There are so many cool features about this car, but there's one that I think is so useful, so underrated, can in the long run save you thousands of dollars potentially,

and most of the general population doesn't know about it.

And this feature that I love so much is called sentry mode.

So before we really get into what happened, you really need to know about this feature that Teslas have.

It's something I think every car in the future will probably have, and it's what allowed me to actually capture this all on camera.

So Sentry Mode is basically a built-in security system that all newer Teslas have.

Sentry Mode uses some of the eight cameras

that the car has for autopilot to save and record footage as you're driving or as you're parked.

All the Model 3s have them.

The only ones that might not are like the older Model Ss.

I'm pretty sure the older hardware does not have them but

if you order a new Tesla today then you definitely get this feature

so back to what happened a couple months ago

so i was getting dinner with a friend who was in town brooke michio she's also a youtuber

if you guys know her and she's thinking of getting a tesla

so i was like all right you need to ride in it

so i ended up giving her a ride back to her airbnb

and it was on a somewhat busy road

but it had a pretty big shoulder there were cars parked on the side

so i just pulled up to the side the road was beverly glenn boulevard

so if you live in l.a you know it's like a pretty long road

and it actually goes up into a neighborhood in the hills

so it just kind of felt like a neighborhood like it

didn't really feel like a weird place to park okay we've

returned to the scene of the crime i found the exact spot

that this happened so this is the exact spot

that i parked as you can see lots of room to park

and have cars drive by without hitting you just 30 seconds into being parked there i felt

that unmistakable it wasn't a bang but it was like a really big whoosh sound and the whole car shook.

I knew immediately like someone had just hit my car.

Like there's no mistaking it.

You know, you feel the whole car move and I saw the car, but it was gone so fast.

I didn't get the license plate.

I didn't get anything.

In that moment, you're so shocked.

You're not thinking, oh, remember the license plate number, like memorize that.

Like, no, that's not, no one actually really does that.

So I tapped that little button, had the footage saved.

And when I got home, I immediately sifted through the footage until I found it.

And this is what we got.

So like I said, the car captures every angle.

So I was able to see front and back when the car hits me, like two angles of it.

So we basically can see this car approaching from afar.

And then they come over, pretty much go on the line and hit my mirror.

I kept calling it a headlight earlier.

It was a mirror.

What is wrong with me?

I really had to slow it down to be like, did they hit me?

Like what?

So it's a little tricky to see because it does get dark when the car actually

hits So it's basically as

if a car driving by like this one just kind of swiped my car

and hit the mirror But you can see they are like on the line like they're driving

Way too close to the edge there.

So we have that angle But that angle is not super helpful because you know, there's no license plate number That's why a regular dash cam just wouldn't be that helpful in this situation

It only would have gotten one of the angles

and we'd still be either needing the license plate number

or the person Hitting the car so I opened up the next clip

and I thought it might be too dark Honestly to see the license plate, but we definitely can see it as the car drives by

If I pause it you can you can see that

and you can tell they're still like driving right on that line They're about to hit that other car too.

So sure enough the next day I look at my car

and and it took like a long time honestly to see it

but there was a small scratch and kind of crack on the headlight

so really not a big deal like not I mean they barely even hit my car like

if it took me that long to notice it like no one's gonna notice it

so here's the tiny little scratch if you can see

that okay look you guys I know this is a tiny scratch really not a big deal at all

but every year there's almost a million hit and run accidents

and sentry mode is kind of putting a stop to this by catching them all on camera

so now you can probably see how i would not have

been able to see this at night it's really something probably no one would notice except me okay

so yes it's a tiny scratch i know it's like hardly anything

but honestly it's kind of just the principle of the whole thing

that person had to have felt hitting my car like i definitely felt I'm sure

that they did too

and they didn't stop they just kept going quick ad break for a second

that I think is very Relevant to this video actually

if you've ever wanted a Tesla

But you can't afford one right now company called omaze is

actually giving one away omaze is actually sponsoring this video

And they're a website

that does a bunch of different giveaways to support different charities It's actually really cool

and this one they reached out to me because they're giving away a Tesla and I'm sure everyone watching

would love to win a Tesla.

I mean, I'd love to win a Model X, shoot.

They're giving away this performance Tesla Model X and $20,000.

It's got the Falcon wing doors, full self-driving.

It's actually the safest and fastest SUV ever built.

I drove one for a weekend and the full self-driving was so nice.

It made driving and traffic a breeze and the Falcon Wing doors are just so cool.

I mean, everyone loves them.

100

Omaze is raising money for a program called After School All Stars.

101

With all of the school closures and everything going on right now, they've changed their program to address the needs that students have right now.

102

They're offering food assistance and they're also doing virtual programming

103

so students can learn and to help their emotional well-being too because this is a really weird times.

104

So if you're looking for a cause to support right now, might as well be entered to win a Tesla too, right?

105

So you can just head over to omaze.com slash Shelby Church to enter to win.

106

Now back to what happened to my car.

107

So once I saw the damage, I did call the police and have them make a police report the next day.

108

So here it is.

109

This is the police report.

110

You know, we've got the license plate.

111

We've got everything.

112

But the police officer told me this is kind of useless

113

because we didn't actually catch the person and have them admit it.

114

We don't have a photo of their face.

115

Somebody else could have been driving the car.

116

And they really honestly acted like there's nothing they could do about it.

117

Like they, the guy was like, are you serious?

118

You really called me here for a scratch?

119

They said they would try and contact the guy and see if he would say he did it.

120

But I mean, do we really think that LAPD did that?

121

I'm sure they have better things to do than deal with like the scratch on my car.

122

So, so I know this is just a tiny little scratch and it really isn't a big deal, but it still really shows how beneficial Tesla's sentry mode is.

123

The fact that you have every angle

124

and you can even get a license plate number in the dark pretty much ensures you

125

that you'll have evidence anytime someone hits your car.

126

If it was a whole car door that they rammed into and ruined, I would be running the license plate number myself.

127

I would track that person down.

128

At least I like to think that.

129

I don't know if I actually would.

130

Okay, realistically, I'd probably just give the footage to my insurance company to handle, but still very helpful.

131

I like to think I have the skills to maybe do that.

132

I don't know.

133

What I'm trying to say is I'd be trying a lot harder.

134

So now I need to actually get the thing repaired.

135

I get a lot of comments being like, good luck if your car ever needs to get repaired.

136

People also comment that it takes forever to get it repaired.

137

And today I guess we're going to find out.

138

So I started Googling Tesla repair places and then I remembered that you can just do it in the Tesla app.

139

So in the app, it's actually super easy to go through.

140

You basically just tell them what's going on with your car, upload a photo.

141

This whole thing took probably, I don't know, two minutes.

142

And they had a bunch of appointments available even just the next week and can literally come to my house, which is amazing.

143

I got a confirmation text and it was all good to go.

144

Easiest appointment I've ever made in my entire life.

145

They're literally going to come to my house.

146

And people say getting your Tesla repaired is a hassle.

147

Now I'm just kind of scared for the cost estimate.

148

All right, so it's a few days since I made the appointment.

149

I made the appointment on a Friday for the following Tuesday.

150

It is now Monday and they texted me letting me know that the school cap part didn't arrive in time, so they're gonna have to reschedule it for a different time.

151

I think this is very obviously because of everything going on right now.

152

Shipping anything is taking longer, So i'm guessing on a normal circumstance like in normal times it would probably

153

Be getting repaired tomorrow still

154

and honestly i'm totally fine with pushing it back like i've

155

got nowhere to be I haven't driven my car in like

156

a week as for the price they quoted me 350 to replace the skull cap.

157

So they're just going to replace that whole Outer shell I guess of the mirror

158

So it's a bit more than I expected

159

because I thought they could just like buff it out or something But when you look at it, it actually is cracked.

160

It's not just scratched.

161

It makes sense and $350 isn't too bad.

162

It's still not enough for me to really like want to go after this person.

163

I think if it was like a couple thousand dollars worth of damage, then I would really like look for them.

164

But still, I'm so glad I have this feature

165

because I hear stories every day about friends who park somewhere and they come back and their car is totally f*ed up.

166

Just like two months ago, someone hit my friend Tasha's car and it was like $10,000 in damage and it was just parked.

167

If her car had sentry mode, she would have all the evidence.

168

She would have the person's face getting in the car, the license plate, everything.

169

My sister Vanessa, her car got super messed up by someone.

170

I don't know about you guys, but all my previous cars, I had at one point or another come back to at least a weird little scratch

171

that definitely wasn't there before or a door ding.

172

In fact, here's a car I owned in 2014.

173

Someone hit it on the freeway, it flipped on its side, flipped back over, and then they drove away.

174

Maybe it's just the people in LA, but no one ever leaves a note.

175

They just leave you to deal with it, and it can be very expensive.

176

And that's basically why Sentry Mode is, like, my low-key favorite feature after autopilot.

177

It's something that I think if you're in between getting a Tesla and getting a different car, you might want to consider because sentry mode could really save you money in the long run because

178

chances are someone's going to cause some kind of damage to your car.

179

And above that, just the peace of mind that if someone hits my car, I'll have evidence is like no other.

180

Like it is really the greatest thing.

181

I know that my example wasn't exactly like a success story because, you know, the police didn't really like find anything.

182

If it was actually enough damage worth going after, That's something that I could give to my insurance company

183

and actually like go after this person if I chose to do that Alright, hope that you guys enjoyed this video.

184

If you want to check out the giveaway I'll have it linked down below

185

and I will see you in my next video.

Bye

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
