In an interview with CNA938, SMU Assistant Professor of Strategy & Entrepreneurship (Education) Terence Fan said that the issue with inward-facing cameras is protection. However, he noted that protection goes both ways: some people want to keep information confidential, while others want everything recorded. Asst Prof Fan said that an inward-facing camera is something that PHV drivers specifically have to apply for, and that the footage would only be accessed by authorised personnel. He mentioned that inward-cameras would be helpful for people to have that protection when they want it.
