I don't see it as an invasion of privacy at all. I always wear my seatbelt and since having LO I stick to the speed limit so I dont have much to hide </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-boxes-in-newer-cars#post-1048532 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 07:54:04 +0000 looch 1048532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's a great idea...this way you don't have to rely on witnesses.</p> <p>I can also see why it could be viewed as an invasion of privacy to some, but in my opinion, when you drive on public roads, you give that up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/black-boxes-in-newer-cars#post-1048528 Wed, 28 Aug 2013 07:51:05 +0000 BSB 1048528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone hear about newer cars having black boxes?<br /> They can tell you if you were wearing your seat belt, how fast you were going and other details before the crash.</p> <p>I don't mind it. I think it's good to have all the details if I were involved in an accident.</p> <p>DH is really uncomfortable by it. He thinks it's an invasion of privacy. </p> <p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/22/business/black-boxes-in-cars-a-question-of-privacy.html?pagewanted=all&#038;_r=0" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/22/business/black-boxes-in-cars-a-question-of-privacy.html?pagewanted=all&#038;_r=0</a> </p>
