And that would be a felony. Just don't mention it, save the old video together with the camera(at least until the statute of limitations is over), and buy a replacement camera. That way if the other party finds out about it and files discovery, you can claim "I stopped using that camera and forgot all about it after the accident, but I still have it somewhere." At that point it will be used against you but it would be so much worse if you couldn't produce it.

It is a felony to destroy my own property? My camera, my data...I don't get it. If I want to destroy my own property, not sure you could stop me.
It's no different then you hitting a pedestrian with your vehicle and then having the body work repaired in an attempt to cover it up.
