British Private a company that manages parking lots Car Park Management, has produced a free app i-Ticket (it is available for devices iOS and Android), which pays the user £10 (approx. 12 euros), if he reports a wrongly parked vehicle. It does this by uploading through the app a photo of the illegally parked vehicle and the license plate. The company then searches the vehicle registration agency (DVLA) database to find the owner and sends them a fine of £60 (approx. 70 euros), which rises to 100 pounds after two weeks.

I wish you were like that financial incentive convinced you to report a wrongly parked vehicle yourself, or do you think the method is too controversial? If nothing else, this kind of practice would probably make you think twice before parking incorrectly. The application was basically intended for smaller companies that do not have secured parking lots.
