<div dir="ltr">I am surprised to hear that the device that records all of this information is actually located near the airbag. I have never looked into the matter but I would have thought that it would be located near the ECU/Main "computer" for the vehicle. I know that flashing of cars computers has been something people have been doing for a long time to improve performance, fuel usage, and much more so I wouldn't be surprised if before too long someone comes out with a ROM that somehow locks down, encrypts, or does away with the data that is being recorded at the vehicle owners discretion. <br><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Sep 12, 2014 at 2:37 PM, William Yang <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wyang@gcfn.net" target="_blank">wyang@gcfn.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On 09/11/2014 08:52 AM, Joshua Kramer wrote:<br>

in the ground and was about as big as a house? Sounds like me playing Call<br>
