This will become mandatory.
A sign was noticed in a taxi in Minsk warning that video surveillance is in progress. This is a requirement of the registry, taxi driver Ivan explained to Smartpress.
He specified that the option was introduced for the safety of drivers and passengers. Camera recordings are stored for a year.
However, the driver did not say where exactly the camera is located. It was not possible to find it during a visual inspection of the cabin.
From November 1, the operating conditions of taxi services in Belarus have changed. All drivers and cars must be registered in the register of passenger transportation in irregular traffic. It is impossible to work without this.
The Ministry of Transport believes that the register will help “limit the presence of unscrupulous carriers and dispatchers on the passenger transportation market.”
In fact, passengers only received higher prices for trips and an increased waiting time for a car.
