The long arm of the insurance industry pulling legislative strings

Sounds like BS. If so, it will get shut down before it hits the market. If not I know what I will be doing. Going into business uninstalling / hacking them.

What if they make it a criminal act for removing/shutting down the box?

Have already avoided purchasing certain vehicles exactly because of these. :biggrin:

Fortunately, no EDR's in 91-2005 NSX's. But you can BET YOUR *SS they will be OEM "standard equipment" in NSX V2 if ever built.

Jeez, just take humans out of the equation altogether and make new cars (except for sports cars, which would require a license to operate) self-driving. That would be a better use of technology than using it to monitor people.

*laugh* I'm with Drifter on this one...

Future Headline: "black box bypass business boosts economy"

Much ado over nothing. These EDRs are already in about 90% of new cars.

A continual, incremental erosion of the 4th Amendment.
