Transportation Department to propose mandatory black boxes in passenger vehicles?
A few years back, the Department of Transportation recommended
that auto makers give car owners a heads up when they slip event data
recorders -- also known as "black boxes" -- into new models. Now, it
looks like the department is considering taking its policy a step (or
several) further: a memo reveals that the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration plans to propose later this year that all new
passenger vehicles have EDRs. So far, heavy-duty vehicles appear to be
excluded, and either way, it's unclear how many years auto makers might
have to work black boxes into their future models. Interestingly, when
we asked a DoT staffer for clarification, he reminded us that the agency
hasn't issued a press release and said he wasn't sure where
Wired
and other outlets were getting their information. Indeed, the
Transportation Department hasn't proposed such a law yet, though it's
pretty safe to say it's at least pondering it. Hit the source link to
pore over the 197-page doc for yourselves (tip: we suggesting paying
particular attention to page 54). [Warning: PDF source link]
