Passenger and Driver Safety
On city bus lines where the only authority figure on board is usually the driver, it's hard to maintain a tight level of security. Video surveillance cameras are working to help solve this problem. Many buses are now equipped with security cameras. By functioning as deterrents to criminal activity and inappropriate behavior, these cameras provide passengers and drivers with an added sense of security, and can also supply valuable evidence during criminal investigations.

There are numerous advantages of implementing a bus security system:
Protect drivers – Bus drivers must put a lot of faith in their passengers acting appropriately. Unfortunately, one never knows what type of riders will step onto the bus on any given day. The presence of onboard security cameras can help in deterring and investigating unacceptable behavior and aggressive outbursts directed towards drivers.
Enforce rider regulations – Bus rules and regulations are easier to enforce with a second set of eyes. It's common for buses to feature signs which mention the presence of video surveillance. Riders who know they're under watch are more likely to follow rules, pay bus fares, and obey driver orders.
Prevent theft – Onboard security cameras monitor bus activity, and act as preventative measure against acts of theft between riders.
Deter violence – The unpredictable nature of bus passengers throughout the day can at times lead to violent incidents. Such an incident could stem from an argument between riders, or a passenger under the influence of alcohol or drugs losing composure. Surveillance cameras can monitor for such unsavory activity, enabling operators to alert authorities should an incident break out.
Enhance passenger safety – Users of the bus system want to be confident that their mode of transportation is a safe one. Onboard video surveillance cameras give riders the assurance that authorities are doing everything in their power to provide a high level of security.
Liability - City buses need to take serious action to protect themselves from false liability claims and suits, such as those that involve passengers claiming they slipped and fell when in actuality the camera footage shows otherwise.

City officials want to clear bike lanes of parked cars and delivery trucks by using an automated camera system, ending a safety hazard that is the scourge of cyclists, like Andrew Woolward.
'It forces me, as a cyclist, onto the sidewalk or into the middle of traffic and it's very, very frustrating to navigate cars parked in the bike lanes, especially the delivery trucks, too,' Woolward said.
It's a fact of life on the streets.
What You Need To Know
- City lawmakers heard testimony on a bill that would allow New Yorkers to report drivers who block bike and bus lanes, taking 25% of fines paid
- City's acting transportation commissioner said the bill could lead to assaults between drivers and cyclists reporting blocked bike lanes
- Nearly 8,400 calls were made to 311 reporting drivers in bike lanes
'Almost daily,' Woolward lamented.
In 2019, nearly 18,000 complaints were called into 311 about vehicles in bike lanes
The number to nearly 8,400 calls in 2020. The drop off came after coronavirus restrictions went into effect.
At a City Council hearing Tuesday, the city's acting Transportation Commissioner Margaret Forgione said an automated system, similar to the city's bus lane camera program, could be a solution to the enforcement problem.
'We're very interested in automated bike lane enforcement and I think it's something we're going to give some serious thought to going forward,' Forgione said. 'I definitely want to acknowledge that we seek to do better, as a city, in terms of enforcement to keep people safer.'
Still, the acting commissioner came out against legislation that would create a new violation for obstructing a bike lane, bus lane, sidewalk or crosswalk, and impose a $175 fine.
The legislation also would also require the Transportation Department set up a complaint system for New Yorkers to report bike-line violators and get a 25% cut of any fine paid.
'We truly see a very concerning result of citizen-on-citizen assaults. Verbal assaults, which are one thing, but most concerning, physical assaults,' Forgione said.
Councilman Steve Levin of Brooklyn, the bill's sponsor, said his legislation is the result of years of the city doing little to stop drivers from misusing parking placard privileges and flouting parking rules.
'This was not the first-step solution or the second, but years of agencies failing to keep our streets free from obtrusive and harmful parking has made this bill a necessity,' Levin said.
The NYPD's new Transportation Chief Kim Royster testified that she will make police supervisors accountable for keeping officers from blocking bike lanes and bus stops, saying that illegal parking 'erodes the trust' with the community.
