The cost of providing vehicle CCTV systems has fallen

The cost of providing CCTV systems on vehicles has fallen.

The cost of providing CCTV systems on vehicles has fallen significantly in recent years, and technical improvements in the hardware now make reliable, robust systems readily available. Prices are still falling as the technology becomes cheaper and more commonplace. Costs vary, depending on the equipment used and the supplier. Generally, colour systems are more expensive than monochrome; compact ‘flat’ monitors are more expensive than traditional, deeper CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors; systems for articulated vehicles are more expensive than for rigid vehicles, due to the extra connector and the extra labour involved in fitting.
