Apart from taxis, is any other vehicle permitted to have taximeter lighting installed?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

No. Taximeter lighting is a device exclusive to taxi vehicles. The General Vehicle Regulations state that taximeters and their corresponding lighting may only be installed in vehicles providing this public service that are duly approved and authorized. Installing this type of light signaling in private vehicles or other types (such as buses) is prohibited, as it could mislead other road users regarding the nature and service of the vehicle.
