I'm sure the slashdot-correction-effect will come into play on this one, but I've heard of at least one case where the information from this box was used in a case against the driver of the car, the box said he was travelling at like 110MPH when he hit another car and it was accepted verbatim by the court. Now the police have to calibrate their speed equipment on a regular basis, and it isn't used under conditions experienced by equiment attempting to record violent crashes while being involved in said violent crashes, but until some senator's kid kills someone and needs to be proven innocent, we probably won't see much respite from it. Where's Atticus Finch when you need him? Isn't it possible that car was going 109MPH?......
