Petition Action

Make it law to have CCTV installed by drivers in all taxis across the UK.

Petition Details

When the harrowing reports were released about the grooming scandal in Rotherham, it wasn't a great surprise that the main way the girls involved were trafficked: mainly by taxis. CCTV in all taxis UK-wide could help decrease rape and abuse of young girls, and drastically increase their safety.
