SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COLLECTION AND RETENTION OF VEHICLE EVENT INFORMATION

A system for collecting vehicle event information having one or more vehicle input devices operable to capture environmental data and vehicle steering data. The system includes one or more processors operable to determine a spatial position of the vehicle based on a signal of a GPS unit of the vehicle. The one or more processors are also operable to determine a road condition corresponding to the spatial position of the vehicle; compare the position of the vehicle against the road condition to determine a risk probability corresponding to the spatial position of the vehicle; and adjust a data collection parameter of the at least one of the one or more vehicle input devices according to the risk probability.
