Toyota & " Black Boxes "
A few weeks + ago, either the WSJ or NYT mentioned the black boxes, i.e. event data recorders ( EDR ) , on the Toyota are proprietary in a non-standard format that can only be accessed by Toyota.
GM, Ford and Chrysler all have standard format EDRs where there is open access. The DOT Gov decree to allow open access on Toyota's version will not become effective until 2012.
