Related idea, except it punishes those who deserve it most. :) [arghblah, Jul 31 2000, last modified Oct 04 2004]

And EMP car alarm silencer? |
|
| |
I'm all for the EMP alarm silencer... |
|
| |
that's just plain silly I'm all for it |
|
| |
Just get a can of yellow spray paint. |
|
| |
Paint double yellow lines under the offending car, then call the police. They will quickly arrive and tow the vehicle away. |
|
| |
A can of black spray paint can then be used to prepare the space for your own car. |
|
| |
Since one needs to hold spray paint can @ 10" - 25 cm from asphalt that is going to be kind of tricky - what with undercarraige of vehicle - since tires are in the way - do you propose hoisting entire vehicle aloft? |
|
| |
You could lend [Mayfly] your backup winch and a pulley (in case it gets cold). |
|
| |
The traffic wardens here in London will ticket anything that is slightly suspect. As long as there is a hint of yellow paint within several feet of your car, prepare to walk home. |
|
| |
There you go - another idea. A small motorised double yellow line painter that powers itself underneath the offending vehicle and out the other side once done. |
|
| |
I think a conveyor would work. One 1 yellow line, it will be normal, and the other a conveyor. It could be used by pressing 1 of 3 buttons on a wall-mounted control panel. The 3 settings are compact, SUV/Small pickup and Large Truck. The conveyor will have to be strong enough (at least) to hold more weight than it will ever need to hold. It's a lot easier. |

<old joke>
Examiner: What does a yellow line mean?
Irishman: No parking at all.
Examiner: Correct. What does a double yellow line mean?
Irishman: No parking at all at all.</o j> |
