Just watching CNBC this morning and Sheppard Smith and the police are saying it is just part of their due diligence but then again if they did suspect something would they really say it? And crime or not if there was a black box why wouldn't you see what it contained after an accident like that? I still think falling asleep is as logical as anything else but in theory that data could/should clarify a lot.

They would get braking and acceleration data before the crash, I used to work in insurance, as Steve UL does, he will often pull the black box and analyse.

I still think falling asleep is as logical as anything else but in theory that data could/should clarify a lot. Most police agencies won't access crash data unless it is a fatal crash. Single vehicle, no passengers crashes are victimless crimes, or that's how they view them anyway. My understanding of getting a search warrant to access the data, has to come with some expectation of high speed, or something else that appears criminal. They can't just go on a fishing expedition. So for example in this case, they can measure the distance the vehicle rolled to final rest, or something else like an airborne distance, and come up with an approximate speed. If that shows a high speed then they can get their warrant. Right now I don't think we can access data from a 2021 Genesis GV80; just 2020 as the software has not been updated. I just accessed data from a 2019 Hyundai vehicle this morning. I think they'd have to send the module to South Korea to access the data for a 2021. A software update should be coming soon though. This vehicle also has several autonomous features, and it may be recording video as it goes. The entire crash may be stored in the vehicle systems. It may be that he was fighting the autonomous features, but those are supposed to shut off with any driver intervention. There is a traffic camera video out there that shows him driving by about 5 mins before the crash time. He does not appear to be speeding at that point, but that doesn't mean he wasn't speeding five minutes later.

No, they have to have some sort of sign of impairment before they can compel him for a breath or blood sample. abcnews.go.com/US/tiger-woods-car-crash-sheriff-release-findings/story?id=76920335&fbclid=IwAR0l9lXcr0LpOsWoXbxvi81LIoDgKxppauSNb4NnZR-h71OMop8Lu1C5q_gThe report here suggests they had speeds out to two decimal places in mph, which is bullshit. This shows me they don't know what they are doing. I don't doubt that his speeds were high because he seemed to go a good distance out of control. The suggestion is that he hit the gas when he wanted to hit the brake, which I have seen many times. In the link I added here, they show a graphic of the path of travel through the crash sequence. This vehicle will have some autonomous features and may have been driving itself. His path through the median seems to follow the curb line at a turn-around spot, which could mean his vehicle drove him there, before he tried to disable it. But that wouldn't explain the high speeds as that has to come from the driver, and not the autonomous features.
