Regina taxicabs to be equipped with cameras

Regina taxicabs could be getting a hi-tech makeover in the next few years, with on-board cameras and tracking devices part of the package. 

The city administration is recommending that security cameras be installed in all cabs by May 1st, 2015. 

It’s one of a series of proposals going to the city’s executive committee later this week. 

The city is also recommending that G-P-S devices and computer-aided dispatching be added to all cabs by May 1st, 2014. 

Part of reason for the changes is security and the need to protect vulnerable cabbies.
