==[Incident]==
In late 2022, Traffic Police division of the Singaporean Police Force requested that the Cybercrime division extract data from a car infotainment system to investigate a possible speeding offence. Extracted Information included call logs, messages, and GPS data. The Singaporean Police Force claimed that this data confirmed her identity. This evidence lead to her prosecution and later conviction in January of 2023.<ref name=":0" />

This incident was given as an example of the vehicle forensics programs capabilities during the May 24, 2024 during the Police Workplan Seminar 2024. The Singapore Police Force is working to further develop the vehicle forensics programs; specifically other means to extract data from vehicle such as through the On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Port. A proof of concept demonstrated at this conference was able to combine data on a car's location, braking and acceleration patterns to render a video of the vehicle and aid investigators. ''The Star'' reported that this system can be used for a large number of vehicles, given data can be extracted by infotainments system or OBD port.<ref name=":0" />
