Here's a second example of a black box for your car.
The RoadScan Drive Recorder is the auto industry's equivalent to the black boxes found in commercial airplanes. It records video 14 seconds before and 6 seconds after an accident, showing precisely what has happened. It also records acceleration and deceleration data along with the exact date and time. The really cool part is that the data can be easily uploaded to your home PC.
Here was our first example:
