【D10】
In many American cities finding a place to park your car can be a headache: in Tokyo it’s more like a migraine. Parking is forbidden on ninety-five percent of Tokyo’s streets and because landowners can make a lot more money by building apartments and office buildings, the city has few parking garages. Not surprisingly, most drivers park their cars illegally. The government has decided to fight back. Under the city’s new parking laws the maximum fine for leaving a car parked illegally o-vernight is fourteen hundred dollars. The cheapest fine for a parking infraction runs about seventy-five dollars. T. R. Reid reports for the Washington Post from Tokyo. He says the city’s traffic cops have even enlisted the help of new high-tech parking meters.
He said that the high-tech parking meters can yell at the cops. When your time expires, red lights blink just to make sure that the parking cop gets over there quickly. They have electric eyes. That’s what I think is really diabolical. They have an electric eye. They see your car the minute it pulls in, so the idea of sitting at the meter for a while and doing some work—you can’t do that because your sixty minutes is already ticking away.
The meter is smart enough to know if your car has had its allowed sixty minutes, so you can’t feed the meter and buy another hour. And it keeps ticking after your time is up so that it tells the cop how long you’ve been there. And the longer you’ve been parked illegally, the higher your ticket is.
