Overview

This SAE Symposium will provide a forum for the dissemination of new and significant technical advances, regulatory and industry standards development for both passenger and commercial highway vehicles, as well as legal and privacy issues which have become the forefront of both public legislative consciousness, often debated in publications ranging from Time Magazine, U.S. News & World Report to the Wall Street Journal. With its deployment and use continuously expanding, these topics keep getting hotter and hotter while generating interesting debate.

SAE created the first forum on this topic in conjunction with the NTSB in June 2003. Now, with additional DOT regulations and industry standards on the horizon, this upcoming program will focus on state-of-the-art recorder technology for passenger and commercial vehicles, recent devel¬opments and trends in data recording technology, current legal and priva¬cy issues; as well as actual case studies which will demonstrate both the benefits and cautions related to the application of this technology as it applies to real world events.
