It depends on the system, OBD2 compatible systems are not all alike, some of the computers using the format have a lot more abilities than others, but yes, some can store that black box type of info, including speed, revs, and other things that could show you were doing 100kph drifting when you crashed.

Legaly though, it's debatable wether it could be used against you, after all the car and it's contents are your property, and if you want to take out the computer and hit it with a very large hammer there is probally little anyone could do about it.
