What is the point of trying to combat the problem of bad parking in the city. This initiative, which began to be implemented in different parts of Queenespecially targeting commercial and heavy transport vehicles that violate parking regulations.

The device from Barnacle is very simple but effective: it sticks to the vehicle’s windshield, completely blocking the driver’s view until the appropriate fine is paid and a code is issued for solve In addition, the violators must pay a deposit of $200which will be reimbursed once the device is properly returned to one of the specified points to complete this procedure.
These actions are part of a wider effort by the city to control and reduce critical traffic levels, following previous initiatives such as the implementation of toll rates to reduce Manhattan.

In an effort to modernize and streamline the improper parking penalty process, Barnacle parking at the empresa, based in New Jersey, developed the novel system. This new method allows drivers to remove the lock on their vehicles themselves after paying the appropriate fine.
The procedure for releasing the vehicle is simple: the driver must scan them QR code of the device stuck on the windscreen, enter the vehicle registration number and payment of the fixed fine. After confirmation of payment, the driver receives a special code to unlock the device, which must then be deposited in a designated area near where the vehicle was parked.

This system does not only penalize bad parking, but also includes an alarm and GPS location technology to monitor the immobile vehicle, which will have a more serious effect on those who try to move their car without permission. Although it covers almost every view, the driver could always stick his head out of the window to move his car, so if someone tries to move to do so the police will be notified immediately. The use of the police to arrest the offender, as they explain, takes between 20 and 30 seconds.
