Would depend a lot on the circumstances I'd imagine.

At a minimum it would certainly be a bad look if your dash cam / footage conveniently disappeared when you were contending the accident was someone else's fault and at the other end of the spectrum it could be considered evidence tampering and have some very weighty consequences for the act alone.
