US bill would make crash data ‘black boxes’ mandatory in cars

Seatbelts? Fuck seatbelts.
There’s been talk of putting “black box” crash data recorders in cars for a while now, and with the MAP-21 Act easily passing in the Senate, it looks like automobile black boxes will become a reality.

Here’s Steve, who joined us for a special drive on a carefully programmed route to experience being behind the wheel in a whole new way. We organized this test as a technical experiment, but we think it’s also a promising look at what autonomous technology may one day deliver if rigorous technology and safety standards can be met.
