Audio and Video Surveillance for Taxi Cabs
We need to place audio surveillance in every taxi cab in Arizona. This is because taxi cab drivers are starting to take advantage of passengers. The acts are usually sexual in nature. This leaves the passenger vulnerable to being taken advantage of. This happened to me and it has taken a year for the court to take action. If there was audio surveillance in the cab, it would have pulled a little more weight in getting a result.
Why is this important?
My petition would help other victims of sexual abuse in a taxi cab to get justice quicker. It might even prevent the abuse from happening. I am personally affected by this issue. I was sexually assaulted by a cab driver. If there was audio and video surveillance in the cab it would have provided the police with evidence that the driver did threaten my well being.
