There are indications that all cars manufactured from 2014 will be equipped with Event Data Recorders, also known as EDRs or black boxes.

As it is with airplanes, the technology is expected to give regulators and law enforcement agents accurate information about the events leading to an accident involving every car.

Car manufacturers have always relied on air bags and seat belts to give occupants of vehicles maximum protection in the event of crash. Some luxury cars have between six and 10 air bags.
