and a video recording device, wherein the AVNT is configured to: receive an intent to use public closed circuit television (CCTV) from a user, transmit a location of the vehicle to an external server, receive at least one public CCTV video within a predetermined distance from the location of the vehicle from the external server, receive a selection from the user of one video among the at least one public CCTV video, and transmit a control signal to the video recording device to switch between an ON state and an OFF state. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system according to claim 1, wherein the AVNT is further configured to transmit a first signal to the video recording device if the intent or the selection is not received, and the video recording device is configured to switch a parking recording mode to “ON” upon receiving the first signal. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The system according to claim 1, wherein the AVNT is further configured to transmit a second signal to the video recording device and transmit a request for recording the one video to the external server if the selection is received, and the video recording device is configured to be switched “off” upon receiving the second signal. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The system according to claim 1, wherein the AVNT is further configured to transmit a second signal to the video recording device and transmit the one video to a user's terminal if the selection is received, and the video recording device is configured to be switched off upon receiving the second signal. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system according to claim 1, wherein the AVNT is further configured to transmit a third signal to the video recording device and transmit a request for continuously transmitting the one video to the external server if the selection is received, and the video recording device is configured to execute a parking video storage mode upon receiving the third signal. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The system according to claim 1, wherein the AVNT is further configured to transmit a first signal to the video recording device if the intent or the at least one public CCTV video is not received, and the video recording device is configured to switch a parking recording mode to “ON” upon receiving the first signal. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) A vehicle comprising the system according to claim 1. ### Claim 8 A telematics server comprising: a communication unit; and a video storage unit, wherein the communication unit is configured to: receive a location of a vehicle from an audio video navigation telematics (AVNT) of the vehicle, transmit the location of the vehicle to a public server, receive at least one public closed circuit television (CCTV) video around the location of the vehicle from the public server, and transmit the received public CCTV video to the AVNT, receive from the AVNT information related to one video selected by a user among the at least one public CCTV video, and transmit a control signal to a video recording device to switch between an ON state and an OFF state. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The telematics server of claim 8, wherein the communication unit is further configured to receive from the AVNT a request for storing the one video and store the one video in the video storage unit. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The telematics server of claim 8, wherein the communication unit is further configured to receive from the AVNT a request for a transmission of the one video and transmit the one video to a user's terminal. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) The telematics server according to claim 8, wherein the communication unit is further configured to receive a request for continuous transmission of the one video from the AVNT and transmit the one video to the AVNT. ### Claim 12 A method for recording a parking video by an audio video navigation telematics (AVNT) and a video recording device, the method comprising: receiving, by the AVNT, an intent to use public closed circuit television (CCTV) from a user; transmitting, by the AVNT, a location of a vehicle to an external server; receiving, by the AVNT, at least one public CCTV video within a predetermined distance from the location of the vehicle, from the external server; receiving, by the AVNT, a selection from the user of one video among the at least one public CCTV video, and transmitting, by the AVNT, a control signal to the video recording device to switch between an ON state and an OFF state. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, further comprising transmitting a first signal to the video recording device if the intent or the selection is not received, and switching a parking recording mode “ON” upon receiving the first signal. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, further comprising transmitting, by the AVNT, a second signal to the video recording device and transmitting, by the AVNT, a request for recording the one video to the external server if the selection is received, and switching the AVNT off upon receiving the second signal. ### Claim 15 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, further comprising transmitting a second signal to the video recording device and transmitting the one video to a user's terminal if the selection is received, and switching the video recording device off according to the second signal. ### Claim 16 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, further comprising transmitting a third signal to the video recording device if the selection is received, requesting to the external server, by the AVNT, for continuously transmitting the one video, and executing, by the video recording device, a parking video storage mode upon receiving the third signal. ### Claim 17 (depends on 12) The method according to claim 12, further comprising transmitting, by the AVNT, a first signal to the video recording device if the intent or the at least one public CCTV video is not received, and switching, by the video recording device, a parking recording mode to “ON” upon receiving the first signal.
