Intelligent recording of errant vehicle behaviors

A method, comprising:

• generating, by sensors configured in a vehicle, sensor data;
• generating, by control elements configured in the vehicle, control signals to be applied to the vehicle in response to user interactions with the control elements;
• generating, by electronic control units of the vehicle, status data in operations of the electronic control units;
• receiving, in a data storage device, input data including the sensor data, the control signals and the status data;
• storing the input data received over time in an input partition of the data storage device cyclically;
• generating, using an artificial neural network in the data storage device, a classification of errant behavior based on the input data;
• preserving a portion of the input data associated with the classification of errant behavior in a separate partition of the data storage device;
• and
• bypassing a memory region of the input partition occupied by the portion of the input data for cyclical storage of the input data until the portion of the input data is preserved in the separate partition.
