Taxicab Safety Cameras

Notice To All Interested Parties:

Attached here is an updated list of the Approved Safety Camera Vendors (Download) to secure compliant safety camera systems, which is also posted on the Taxicab and Limousine Division’s “Resources and Forms” page. Verifeye, Inc. has been removed from this list. To date, Verifeye has not received any orders for a camera system. Therefore, the removal of Verifeye as an approved vendor should not delay any taxicab owner from adhering to the Authority’s safety camera installation deadline of October 15, 2015.

For those taxicab owners that have successfully placed an order for a safety camera system, a date for installation should be provided to you soon by the vendor, if it hasn’t been issued already. For all other taxicab owners, you are urged to place an order immediately for a compliant taxicab safety camera to ensure compliance with the installation date of October 15, 2015 to avoid any penalties. A revised inspection schedule consistent with the Board Order will follow early next week.

Questions concerning taxicab safety camera systems may be directed to Lance Lepchuk at (215) 683-9656 or LLepchuk@philapark.org.
