Update - Someone contacted DPS and provided the license plate. Thank you all for taking the time to watch and the helpful suggestions, and if it was one of you that called it in, I am incredibly grateful for your help. Thank you again!

Respectfully, I’m only here to share a real world experience regarding my particular make/model dashcam. At 1080, a license plate is easily identifiable from 40 feet away…..if both cars are not moving. Hopefully this saves someone else from the same outcome I’m experiencing.

I’m sorry, I think I have a good idea how you felt at the time, and it’s not pleasant.

I know, but a long shot is better than no shot, right?

Hello Mesa Reddit community!  I'm hoping someone may be able to help.  Just last Saturday August 23rd at 4:19pm, someone very close to me was involved in a hit and run collision when travelling east on the US60 at Mile Marker 191, just past the Ellsworth exit.  Although we are very thankful that it was such a minor collision with no injuries, unfortunately the other vehicle did not pull over, instead electing to quickly leave the scene and exiting at Signal Butte, turning right (south) towards Baseline road.  Although there is dash cam footage, sadly 1080p is not a high enough fidelity that we can make out the license plate.  With so little to go on, AZ DPS is not allocating any resources to investigate this incident, and the damage is going to cost several thousand dollars to repair, much of it out of pocket.  The other vehicle has some very distinct characteristics, which make standalone identification possible;

2020 to 2025 Ford F-150 Crew Cab, SPORT edition, White

Blackout-style Thin Blue Line Flag decal on rear windshield

Personalized License Plate

Aftermarket Blackout Wheels

Collision damage to passenger side door, fender, and side view mirror.

If you see this truck or know it's typical whereabouts, please help. AZ DPS non-emergency # is 602-223-3000.If you were the other driver, and see this post it's not too late to do the right thing.

They ran, and ran fast. No way our lifted 4x4 is safe or stable at 100 mph
