Event Data Recorder (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an event data
recorder (EDR)
.
The main purpose of an EDR is
to record, in certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting
a road obstacle, data that will assist in understand-
ing how a vehicle’s systems performed
.
The EDR
is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less
.
The EDR in this
vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were
operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety
belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the
accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling
.
These data can help provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur
.
NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a
non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal driving
conditions and no personal data (e
.
g
.
, name,
gender, age, and crash location) are recorded
.
However, other parties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data routinely acquired dur-
ing a crash investigation
.
