You've lost me. If a burglar gets caught he gets punished although he probably doesn't spend the rest of his time whinging about the fact that, whilst he is guilty and was caught, he really shouldn't have been punished (perhaps because burglary rates in that part of town are low, the location of where the law was broken apparently being of significance)

If this happens we'll certainly have a lot more information on accident factors which will be interesting:

"Black box data recorders could be installed in new cars as standard if a Europe-wide study gives them backing.
Police forces across the continent are looking at whether the aircraft-style technology could improve road safety.
The European Commission will use their research to decide if the devices could help in accident investigations.
They are able to record information, including speed and the rate of braking in cars, in the vital seconds leading up to a crash.
It is hoped accident investigators would be able to use the black box information to get a detailed picture of the circumstances surrounding a collision."
