Car he was driving has a black box... ALL will be revealed.

It won't reveal what he was doing immediately prior to loss of control (i.e. texting). That will have to come from the phone or phone company records. And if he was just reading....no record.

Next generation might include a black-box camera pointed at driver. Not acceptable to me, although I don't drive distracted.
