I wouldn't think so...
I would imagine that the box will only be checked when you get into an accident - even if the insurance companies would have won and been able to check the box, I don't think people would have allowed the box to transmit that information constantly - imagine the "Big Brother" implications... Speeding likely wouldn't be an issue anymore. Nor would doing much of anything in a vehicle, if someone were to build a reciever programmed to search for any illegal data and automatically ticket them - U Turns, increasing speed too quickly, braking hard, ect... regardless of circumstances.
