Does my BMW have an event data recorder (EDR)?
Nick - Driven Forensics • 8 December 2024

Car insurance claim repudiated?

Has your BMW been involved in a collision and your insurance has repudiated the claim? Have you accessed your BMW EDR (BMW event data recorder)?


Your BMW EDR can provide an independent witness to determine exactly what happened. It can be used in support of an insurance claim to determine who did what and when.


Driven Forensics forensic vehicle examiner can help you access and interpret your BMW EDR.


What information can your BMW EDR provide?

The information provided from your BMW EDR will change model to model, but it generally includes vehicle speed, engine speed, whether the brake and accelerator pedals were being depressed and if so, by how much, which seats were occupied and who was wearing seatbelts and more.


The next question. Does my car have an event data recorder?


The easiest way to answer that question is to contact Driven Forensics today. We only need to know the make, model and year of registration. We can then use this information to determine if your BMW has an EDR.
