A cunning idea, flawed only by its infringement on the law: a simple self-adhesive sticker with the words 'Police Aware' on it ( as seen on abandoned vehicles) that sticks onto your car window and thus allows you to park anywhere you like. No car park spaces? Park up a verge/in a housing estate/on the roof. It is unlikely that anyone will ask any questions, as the sticker will imply that the police already know. Genius.

       I think you're begging to get your car towed, and losing it completely on further appeal. Sorry, but the server at the link provided must be authorized to serve the page only if linked to directly, so you won't be able to explore the cited case law to any great extent from that node.

       I assume you're not 100% serious with this one? It's a brilliant idea, but not necessarily a legal one... Fun to implement on your own but not marketable. It's more of a teenage prank.

       I think a better "pray and display" notice would be:   

       "priest giving last rites"
