Re:      AUTO DATA NETWORK, INC. (THE "COMPANY") REGISTRATION ON FORM SB-2
         SECOND AMENDMENT ("FIRST AMENDMENT")
         ORIGINAL FILING DATE VIA EDGAR:  JULY 12, 2004


Gentlemen:

I have examined the  registration  statement on the First Amendment to Form SB-2
to be filed by you with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") on or
about July 21, 2004 (the "First Amendment"), in connection with the registration
under the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  of up to 498,189 shares of your
common stock,  par value $.001 per share (the  "Shares").  I understand that the
Shares are to be sold by the selling shareholder to the public from time to time
as described in the First Amendment.

I have  examined  originals or copies of those  corporate  and other records and
documents  I  considered  appropriate.  I have  assumed the  genuineness  of all
signatures,  the authenticity of all documents  submitted to me as originals and
the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to me as copies.

On the basis of such  examination,  our reliance  upon the  assumptions  in this
opinion and our consideration of those questions of laws I considered  relevant,
and subject to the limitations and  qualifications of this opinion,  I am of the
opinion  that the Shares,  if sold by such  selling  shareholders  in the manner
described  in the  First  Amendment,  will be  validly  issued,  fully  paid and
non-assessable.

The laws covered by this  opinion are limited to the present  federal law of the
United States and the present  Delaware  General  Corporation  Law. I express no
opinion  herein  concerning  any laws of any other  jurisdiction  and no opinion
regarding statutes,  administration decisions, rules, regulations or requirement
of  any  country,   municipality,   subdivision   ro  local   authority  of  any
jurisdiction.
