Traffic Ordinance Amendment (No. 137) Bill

Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק לתיקון פקודת התעבורה (מס' 137)

TL;DRA proposal to amend the Traffic Ordinance regulating the installation of meters in taxis, licensing requirements for installers and their maintenance obligations.

Translated from Hebrew

What does the bill do?

The proposal anchors in the ordinance arrangements that exist in an emergency order regarding meters in taxis. The proposal provides that installers (people who install and support meters) must receive a license from the Traffic Controller, have professional training and experience, and provide periodic maintenance services. Installers must update fare prices, keep an inventory of spare parts, and publish their terms and prices. The license is valid for up to six years and is granted only after a criminal background check and fulfillment of additional requirements.
