Security camera footage from inside a City Taxis cab is being reviewed by police in a bid to identify a male passenger allegedly involved in an attack on a female driver on Saturday night.
Senior Sergeant Mel Aitken said police would review recorded camera footage taken from inside the vehicle.
"Security cameras are a required piece of equipment in every taxi, so yes, our investigation will include a review of any recorded [footage]", she said.
City Taxis manager Frank Wilks said the incident was a matter for the police to investigate.
Senior Sergeant Craig Brown said the 39-year-old female taxi driver was assaulted on Saturday night by a male passenger.
The man had been picked up from an address in Waverley and taken to a Portsmouth Dr property about 10pm.
The man had "grabbed and scratched" the female driver, after the vehicle stopped to drop him off.
The woman received "minor injuries" in the attack, but had managed to get the passenger out of her cab, Snr Sgt Brown said.
Security cameras and emergency monitoring systems were made compulsory after a legislation change to improve safety measures for taxi drivers and patrons was brought in by Parliament in August last year.
