Those devices log:
- Acceleration/deceleration/speed
- km driven
- Time of day driving takes place

It doesn't quantify:
- Whether or not the driver is distracted
- Whether or not the driver is impaired
- Whether or not the driver is driving too fast for conditions
- Whether or not the driver is following too close
- Whether or not the driver is obeying traffic signals/signs
- Whether or not the driver is obeying traffic laws

So if it doesn't actually quantify useful data that accounts for the majority of crashes, how does it make things any better?
