Honda Drive Recorder

Aeroplanes come with black boxes, so why not cars? Apparently, that’s what Honda hopes to change with its Drive Recorder that is capable of detecting impacts while saving information of up to a dozen seconds before and eight seconds afterwards. This information includes forward-view imagery, sound, speed data, and deceleration, all stowed away in an SD memory card within the Drive Recorder itself. Guess insurance agents and the authorities will have a much easier time pinpointing who is in the wrong in the event of a collision. The Honda Drive Recorder retails for approximately $500 and currently works with Honda cars only (duh!).
