Its big brother all over again! I know of a few drivers (Mercs I think) who were convicted after a download from their ECU revealed dangerous driving following a fatal accident. So if you are thinking of speeding and have a modern car with lots of gadgets - don't do it in a car

That would be so good. I'd hook it up to a missile system and take out the car park door dingers in one go!
