Abstract:

A system and method are described for storing vehicle-to-x system data in a host vehicle. The system includes a communication unit to be mounted in the host vehicle and configured to receive a vehicle-to-x communication including data indicative of a characteristic of a second vehicle. The system may further include a controller to be mounted in the host vehicle and provided in communication with the communication unit. The controller may be configured to store in an associated memory data indicative of a characteristic of the host vehicle and the data indicative of a characteristic of the second vehicle. The controller may be further configured to transfer the data stored in the associated memory to an event data recorder to be mounted in the host vehicle.
