Cheyenne cops bust out Barnacle to deal with naughty parkers

Aggressive, metro solution to parking scofflaws feels out of place in Wyoming

JACKSON HOLE, Wyo. — The City of Cheyenne announced effective today, the Barnacle parking enforcement system can be utilized on vehicles of flagrant parking violations.

Rather than a traditional car boot on a vehicle’s wheel, the Barnacle device is placed on a vehicle’s windshield; adhered securely with multiple suction cups applying 750 pounds of force. If an attempt to forcefully remove the device occurs, an alarm sounds and alerts parking enforcement officers of the location using GPS. The same occurs if there’s an attempt to drive the vehicle with the Barnacle still in place.

Motorists are advised if a Barnacle device is placed on their vehicle, follow steps on the device to remove it and return Barnacle to a drop box location.

Other solutions can be found on the interwebs without quite the level of law enforcement compliance asked for.
