Being handcuffed to illegally parked cars is, next to the "spider", the worst nightmare of drivers, as it is much worse than the usual punishment of the orderly or the police. Not only are you fined, the handcuffs must be unlocked by an authorized person, which can be very time-consuming and may take quite a while before you get the car back. Fortunately, there is now a much less painful and time-consuming solution - Barnacle. The Barnacle is basically a massive wrong parking ticket that you can't ignore. Requests payment on the spot, security or and the police spread it across the entire windshield, blocking the driver's view. Unless you want to drive with your head praying out the window, you have no choice but to pay the fine.
