The more facts you have in an accident, especially one involving death, the more likely you are to have justice done. And justice is more important than privacy.

Far from being used to always convict drivers, I believe black box evidence will also exonerate the innocent in the same way that DNA evidence does (also objected to by some privacy advocates).

One concern I have is the extension of recorded data from 5 sec. to who knows what limit. Memory is getting cheaper & smaller and when it becomes possible to keep a weeks worth of data they'll do it. Then I question whether anyone has a right to track me over the past week just to see what I've been up to.
