Gone is the parking ticket and enforcement officer

I'm so tired of getting parking tickets. And those ticket enforcement guys...Let's get rid of them!


Okay, so came up with this idea that not only helps us the sufferers, but also the parking system; it can potentially reduce the cost to operate & maintain significantly.

Remember those restaurant pagers? They kinda dissappeared because restaurants are no longer flooded with people. Anyway, using similar concepts and technology, we can develop parking pagers with appropriate additional features.

- portable and rechargeable (at the meter)
- displays time left on the meter
- beeps when time is running out
- allows additional credit for more time

I don't see engineering as a problem, but is it feasible and profitable?

Alternative idea: i-park (i-pass for parking)
