Storage of accident data (Event Data
Recorder)
Your vehicle has an event data recorder (EDR).
The EDR’s function is to record data in the event
of a mild or serious accident. These data are
used to support the analysis of how dierent
vehicle systems behaved.
The EDR records, over a reduced time range
(normally 10 seconds or less), dynamic driving
data and data from the restraint systems, such
as:
●
How dierent vehicle systems worked.
●
Whether the driver and the occupants were
wearing their seat belts.
●
How hard the accelerator or brake pedal was
pressed.
●
Vehicle speed.
These data will provide a better understanding
of the circumstances of the accident.
Data from the driving assist systems are also
recorded. This includes data such as whether
the systems were inactive or active and if such
action had an impact on the vehicle’s dynamic
behaviour, changing its path in the aforemen-
tioned situations, or accelerating or decelerat-
ing the vehicle.
Depending on vehicle equipment, this includes
data from systems such as:
●
the adaptive cruise control
●
the lane assist system
●
the park assist systems
●
the emergency brake functions.
The EDR data are only recorded in specific ac-
cident situations. No data are recorded in nor-
mal driving conditions.
No audio or video data inside or around the
vehicle are recorded. Under no circumstances
are personal data such as name, age, or gen-
der recorded. Nevertheless, third parties (such
as criminal proceedings authorities) may relate
the contents of the EDR data to other data
sources and create a personal reference in the
context of an accident investigation.
In order to read the EDR data it is necessary
to access (if legally permitted to do so) the
vehicle's ODB (“On-Board-Diagnose”) interface
while the vehicle is switched on.
In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, third
parties, such as judicial organisations with the
appropriate tools, may be able to access the
information if they have access to the vehicle or
to the data recorded in the EDR.
SEAT will not have access to EDR data unless
the owner (or, in “Leasing” cases, the lessee or
hirer) gives their consent. There may be excep-
tions to this, depending on legal or contractual
provisions.
