The New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission (TLC) has announced that new specifications have been approved for In-Vehicle Camera Systems (IVCS) currently in use by TLC-licensed medallion taxicab and for-hire vehicles in place of bullet-resistant partitions.

These new regulations may be viewed at www.nyc.gov/html/tlc/downloads/pdf/partition_camera_rules.pdf.

Existing cameras will likely need to be modified (upgraded) or replaced. TLC strongly encourages all licensee camera users to reach out to their original camera installer, or the authorized camera installer of their choice immediately to explore the most convenient options to bring their equipment into compliance before they are subject to enforcement action.

The three camera models that currently meet the new specifications are Honeywell Fareview, VerifEye MKIV and Cygnus Cygcam.

A complete list of authorized camera installers may be accessed on the TLC Web site at www.nyc.gov/html/tlc/downloads/pdf/camera_authorized_installers.pdf.
