From 2022 onwards
New cars are forced to install EDR!
Previously
Newly revised by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology
"Technical Conditions for the Safety of Motor Vehicle Operation"
Requirements are from January 2022
Newly produced passenger cars must be equipped with EDR systems
i.e. driving event logger
This device is called the black box of the car
Vehicle operation data before and after the accident can be recorded
future
Tesla brake doors etc. are involved
The "Rashomon" incident of intelligent driving
It is expected to be confirmed by the data of the black box"
"Motor Vehicle Operation Safety Technical Conditions" National Standard No. 2 Amendment Order
In this regard, many car owners have doubts:
What exactly is an EDR device?
Automotive EDR means automotive event data recording system. EDR is known as Event Data Recorder, that is, the car event data recording system, its role is to record the vehicle's operation of the key data in the three stages before, during and after the collision. EDR can improve the traceability of traffic accidents, and can record data information such as vehicle driving speed and braking status when specific events such as collisions occur.
Why install EDR?
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology publishes relevant standards / the website of the Equipment Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology
The National Standard No. 2 amendment to the "Technical Conditions for the Safety of Motor Vehicle Operation" stipulates that from January 1 this year, newly produced passenger cars in China should be equipped with "EDR" that meets the requirements.
This device, commonly known as the car black box, is triggered when the vehicle collides or the speed changes drastically, and the recording begins.
Cao Guangping, an independent researcher of new energy vehicles, introduced:
Cao Guangping: In the accident, the driver's behavior of stepping on the brake pedal, EDR will save the brake signal from how many milliamperes to how many milliamps, including deceleration, finally stop, the whole process will be recorded.
In addition to recording the driver's handling data, EDR also records the vehicle status.

Lu Wenliang, a special researcher in the automotive industry, introduced:
Lu Wenliang: For example, the speed of the vehicle, the acceleration of the longitudinal and lateral directions, the angle of the steering wheel, the state of the brake throttle, etc., especially when the vehicle with the auxiliary driving function is involved in an accident, EDR can distinguish whether it is the system failure of the vehicle or the human operation error, which helps us to determine the responsibility for the accident.
At present, 99% of new cars listed in the United States are equipped with EDR, and about 10% of new cars in mainland China are equipped. BMW, Mercedes-Benz and other luxury cars, as well as new energy vehicles such as Weilai and BYD, are mostly equipped with EDR, and the average cost is about 1,000 yuan.
Cui Dongshu, secretary general of the China Passenger Vehicle Association, introduced that next year's new cars will be equipped with EDR on a large scale, which will not cause price increases.
Cui Dongshu: The cost is relatively low, that is, the concept of 300 to 500 yuan, manufacturers can overcome this impact, will not increase the cost of consumer car purchase.
