Just so folks don't get confused, these computers obtain their data from onboard sensors, including the sensors that control air bag deployment. They are notGPS based.

And I am sure that the State will introduce physical and possibly witness accounts that, according to their investigastion, corroborate the evidence obtained by the computer download.

Point?

There is usually much more to the story then the brief synopsis presented, especially in the initial coverage, of many news media accounts of interesting events.
