Pay-by-plate parking : ウィキペディア英語版 | Pay-by-plate parking
Pay-by-plate machines are a subset of ticket machines used for regulating parking in urban areas or in parking lots. They enable customers to purchase parking time by using their license plate number. The machines print a receipt that generally displays the location, machine number, expiration time, amount paid, and license plate.
==Principles== The pay by plate system services multiple vehicles by simply inputting the license plate information into a machine. This system results in lower set up costs, maintenance, and prevents drivers from taking advantage of parking meters that have time remaining. This system has also doubled parking revenues in cities like Boston, Pittsburgh, and Oakland to name a few. Another advantage is that it allows parking enforcement officers to use the Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR). The ALPR mounts on parking enforcement vehicles, scans the vehicle license plate, and determines if the driver has purchase time. This process allows the parking enforcement officer to quickly determine who has and has not paid resulting in larger revenue for the city. This system has replaced in many cities the road-side parking meter and the pay and display machines. The advantage of the driver is that the vehicle could be moved to another parking spot and still have a paid status compared to the other systems, one was not allowed to do so. In addition to this advantage, the driver could also purchase time by phone so that the driver does not have to go back to the machine as well as avoiding getting a ticket. The pay by plate machines accept coins, credit cards, and debit cards making unnecessary for drivers to carry large amounts of change. The use of debit and credit cards also come with an advantage for both the city and driver of the vehicle because the driver does not have to carry change at all times and the city does not have to empty the machines as often lowering the cost of maintenance as well as possible pilfering by employees who empty the parking meters also reduces their overall costs.
