This is a big issue right now in the US - I've seen this come up in a for reckless driving/drunk driving cases involving fatalities. GM cars can do this (last X seconds before the airbags are deployed" but I think only the factory can decode it and it is supposed to be "private research data" - until it's subpoenaed...I find it disturbing because it is definitely a "camel's nose in the tent" sort of thing...in a few years, flash memory and GPS will become so cheap that it would be possible to record every single place a car went in it's life and the car parameters during that time. Absolutely technically possible to do right now, cheap enough to be practical very soon.
