Abstract: The vehicle accident recording system is configured for use with a vehicle. The vehicle further comprises a vehicle electric power source. The vehicle accident recording system comprises an acceleration sensor, a plurality of cameras, a control circuit, and a commercially provided and publically available cellular wireless network. The acceleration sensor detects the deceleration event. The plurality of cameras continuously captures video images of the area around the vehicle. The control circuit controls the operation of the vehicle accident recording system. The commercially provided and publically available cellular wireless network provides a communication link between the vehicle accident recording system and the appropriate authority. The vehicle accident recording system is isolated from the vehicle electric power source such that the vehicle accident recording system continues to operate in the event that the vehicle electric power source fails during the unfortunate incident.
