A vehicle black box includes a sensor interface for receiving sensor data of a sensor module sensing at least one physical vehicle parameter. Further, the vehicle black box includes a wireless module for receiving a radio frequency signal, wherein the wireless module generates IQ data based on the radio frequency signal received. The vehicle black box also includes a recording module with a first memory for temporarily storing the IQ data generated and a second memory for permanently storing the IQ data generated. Moreover, the vehicle black box has a processing unit configured to receive and evaluate the sensor data. The processing unit is further configured to control a transfer of the IQ data from the first memory to the second memory based upon the evaluation result.
