Re: to unsafe with this job

"Steve",

The best cameras will transmit data to a central location for storage and retrieval, and be used in conjunction with GPS.

Criminals will indeed try to adapt to this new technology. Just because thieves figured out how to pick locks centuries ago, that doesn't stop us from using locks today - the point is, you use better locks.

There will be camera systems which will be useless or which will fail or be defeated. Those are bad camera systems. There will be superior camera systems which will be more successful and have tactical advantages as I've described. We should demand the use of superior systems.

But, if all cabdrivers want to do is ***** about something, then we will get inferior systems, much like we have now with our credit card regulations and processing.

What happens? When, you pick someone up at state and grand. They want to go to 63rd and stewart. The camera takes picture of that person. When, you get to place on southside. The person can kill right away. Then, steal, and break the camera in pieces. City will never know who killed you.

Who is more dangerous to the drivers, all the thieves who rob cab drivers or the city?
