Claim Text:
1. A data recording apparatus for a vehicle comprising: circuitry including: the data recording control circuitry, in a case where the on-data-recording determination circuitry determines that the recording based on the previous event is actually being carried out at the time when it is determined that the predetermined event occurs, carries out recording of only the data at the time in the memory for the predetermined event, and the data recording control circuitry, in a case where the on-data-recording determination circuitry determines that the recording based on the previous event is not actually being carried out at the time when it is determined that the predetermined event occurs, records the data in the memory at each predetermined time at least until the predetermined period of time elapses from the occurrence of the predetermined event, whereas in a case where the on-data-recording determination circuitry determines that the recording based on the previous event is actually being carried out at the time when it is determined that the predetermined event occurs, continues to record the data in the memory at each predetermined time at least until a predetermined period of time elapses from an occurrence of the previous event, and also records the data in the memory at the time when it is determined that the predetermined event occurs.
