GPS and the law

Many, many cars travelling around the UK now carry sat navs or GPS systems. In the last 18 months, they have become particularly widespread and common-place.

It doesn’t take a huge leap of the imagination, to guess that some of these cars may have been involved in accidents while the GPS systems were operational.

So I wonder if the police have yet begun to use the very useful and comprehensive data stored within sat navs” to help unravel the events prior to an accident occurring.

Of course this may be good or bad news for the sat nav's owner. But either way, it has to be worthwhile way of getting at the truth?
