I don't know about you lot, but Calgary has introduced a pretty hi-tech pay parking system.

So you key in the amount of time you want and your licence plate number. Using your credit card or cell phone.

With that info, the Meter Maids drive by with a licence plate scanner, the computer checks to see if that plate has parking time against it. If not, the computer sends a ticket to your house. Next car, please.

I've seen this in action. All she does is drive slowly up and down the streets. Ka-ching, ka-ching.
