Roads and Transport Authority Dubai has finished the installation of the surveillance system in the entire Dubai Taxi fleet, making them smarter. The system includes a security camera, which activates once a passenger enters a Taxi. A total of 10,684 cameras were installed in this project, which aims at overserving driver’s behavior and minimizing complaints of passengers.
“Security cameras have been installed in 10,684 taxis comprising the entire taxi fleet in Dubai. The move aims to ensure the compliance of taxi drivers with the ethical and professional principles of their business. It also prompts them to stick to exemplary attitudes when dealing with taxi riders,” stated Khaled Al Awadi, Director of Transportation Systems at RTA’s Public Transport Agency.
“The installation of the system started in August 2017 and continued over phases until the entire fleet of Dubai Taxi had been covered. RTA is keen on introducing state-of-the-art facilities for the comfort, security, and satisfaction of clients, which ranks high on RTA’s priorities.”
RTA wants to improve its customer satisfaction and make their rides safer for passengers. This step will help them improve their working standards.
