In light of Government figures revealing that 31 per cent of the Scotland's cabbie community have been assaulted in some form over the last year, a revolutionary piece of CCTV equipment from Paton's Taxiworld, Scotland's leading provider of cabs for sale is set to take the industry by storm.
The new product launched by Paton's Taxiworld's subsidiary company Cygnus, the Cyg-Cam is a cutting-edge in-cab system, which can be fitted to any public or private hire vehicle.
Five years in research and development, the Cyg-Cam is fast becoming a favourite with councils as it comes with a 32Bit inscription system that only authorised persons can access.
With a choice of one or two cameras, infra-red vision and a choice of either colour or monochrome, it is not surprising then that the Cyg-cam is destined for success. Audio sound can also be recorded from driver's camera and the total card capacity is over five hours making it useful for those longer shifts.
William Paton, Chief executive at Paton's Taxiworld said, It is vital that these technologies are being designed to protect the cabbie community. There are however, other features that increase driver safety in taxi's for sale at our Scottish dealership including the L.T.I Hackney carriage and our own vehicle the TW 200 . These cabs both have safety at their heart.
Both vehicles now come with fully sealed and safe compartments for the driver placed behind a shock proof screen and the TW 200 manages to go that extra mile in driver safety, making it one of their most favoured taxis for sale.
Not only does the TW 200 provide a stab-proof panel behind the driver's seat, a localised locking system and a panic alarm, the designers have even thought of placing the change tray between the two compartments away from the driver to try to stop people reaching through.
Mr Paton added, We are proud to provide both of these cutting edge taxis for sale , and what's more we are ecstatic that we are the only dealers able to sell the L.T.I Hackney carriage as new in Scotland as we now have the only official dealership.
