Important notes for potential purchasers of in-vehicle security camera systems

  • There is no limit to the number of camera systems that the NZTA may approve.
  • The NZTA will be updating the list regularly as new approvals are made.
  • The camera system you install must be a system approved by the NZTA. Do not consider installing a system which is not approved.
  • The above approvals are based on the requirements defined in the Land Transport Rule: Operator Licensing 2007 (the rule) as amended by Operator Licensing Amendment (no 2) 2010.
  • The NZTA has no preference as to which camera system is the best.
  • The NZTA does not provide any assurances in regards to the quality or on-going performance of any approved system; or the reputation of any supplier.
  • The NZTA advises purchasers to thoroughly investigate prices, service provision, warranty options and special features of each camera system.
  • The NZTA also advises purchasers to be sure that suitable maintenance and product support for the system is readily available.

Audio recording of passengers in taxis

The NZTA and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) have raised concerns about the use of audio recording in taxis. Please read the following letter and factsheet to ensure you are aware of these issues. If a taxi organisation would like clarification about the general issues raised by this matter under the Act, then it can contact the OPC's enquiry line on 0800 803 909 or email enquiries@privacy.org.nz.
