Default Our trucks have black boxes!

Our trucks have black boxes. I heard they are under the passenger seat. I think it's just extra weight. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

What would happen if we removed them from our trucks? <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

Here is a link with some info on the black boxes.

They are under the driver's seat.

Thanks for the link XLR8NSS. lots of interesting comments there. I am a very safe driver, but I still do not see it as something that police should be able to download for court use. What if another car does not have this device and it shows that you were speeding (maybe only 5-10mph over as we all do) and the other car hit you.(his fault) The device would be downloaded by the police and they would try to make it out as though you were at some fault as well because it would show that you were speeding. I can only see how this device is NOT beneficial- unless you are a perfect, perfect driver 100% of the time.
