    I let the first one go but it's boxes. I'm sorry to be that guy, I take no pride in this.

    Oh maaaan, don't make me go into it like an asshole. It's boxes not box's. You also called them box's in the Dunkirk Spirit thread, I believe in when referring to cereal boxes. I'm sorry, I'm not usually grammar police but this one stuck out and I couldn't let it go.

    And I'd never even heard of car black boxes before this thread so I can't even help you with that.

    I'm going to go.

    I think that 'Boxes' is plural although i think you can use both as nobody gives a shit.

    A car black box is the same as a plane black box, you can hear what the driver is saying moments before impact. It's sort of a Ride on Time.

    They will register speed and driver actions/reactions. Some companies will give an insurance discount if your daughter exercises good driving habit. They will bump up your premiums if your daughter drives poorly.
