Telford & Wrekin Council, GB conducts trial of CCTV cameras in licensed taxis

Telford & Wrekin Council, GB CCTV Cameras Taxis Trial

In Progress

The council seeks 20 taxi drivers for voluntary participation in the pilot. Cabin cameras record driver and passenger behavior footage only accessible if either party files police complaints. Signage on vehicle interiors and exteriors warns passengers about the cameras. The pilot protects privacy rights by maintaining high standards for data security and only using audio in case of emergencies. Local officials hope drivers and passengers experience safer rides with the new technology.
