Safety & Security
During 2006 and 2007 we procured and installed alcohol interlocks and security cameras in all Taxi Nyköping – Oxelösund’s vehicles. The interlock device is set so that the driver may be asked to blow again during the journey. The aim of the security cameras is mainly to act as a preventative and protect drivers from crime. This creates a secure working environment for our drivers and a safe journey for our passengers.
“This is a way of increasing the quality assurance of our transport. When customers step into one of our taxicabs they should feel “at home” and be ensured a comfortable ride with a professional driver. We also have a dress code, and clients should be able to tell that a driver works for Taxi Nyköping – Oxelösund AB. All our drivers wear a white shirt, tie and dark blue trousers.”
Taxi Nyköping - Oxelösund AB also works for ”increased knowledge and awareness of traffic safety”. For the past ten years, Taxi Nyköping - Oxelösund AB has participated in safety days for six-year-olds in collaboration with the Sörmland Coast Rescue Services, ambulance, police, the National Society for Road Safety, Länsförsäkringar insurance company, etc. The safety days are aimed at all six-year-olds in Nyköping, Oxelösund and Trosa municipalities and aims to give young children a first insight into safety thinking. Taxi Nyköping - Oxelösund has contributed information about traffic safety, for example on the importance of using booster cushions and seat belts in both school taxis and private cars.
“We intend to continue this work together with other safety organisations and contribute to the increased knowledge and awareness of traffic safety among children and young people.”
