Meet the Barnacle, it adheres to the windshield using two pump-activated commercial grade suction cups. Should the drivers try removing the Barnacle, a built-in alarm will sound. Once they've paid their fine , drivers will be given a numerical release code, for the Barnacle on their car. They then have 24 hours in which to return it to a drop-off location.
Now I have a free thing to fuck with people I hate.

Drive with your head out the window. Bring it home and take it off there. Sell on craigslist.

I'd pay my fine then drop it over a bridge
Hunter Campbell
I don't understand how this shit is even legal
Eli Allen
So you can just put these on cars? Do they have to commit a crime first?
Wtf..
Alexander Perry
Then you'd have to pay to replace it and probably be arrested for destruction of government property.

hey look it's no longer on the windshield and im driving off.

You people act like they don't record your license plate when they do this.

Brandon Collins
Good luck getting that barnacle to stick on my Mk 1 Pepe Shitposter's windscreen
Carter Howard
This is an incredibly HUGE liability for them. All it takes is one pissed off offender to fumingly enter the vehicle and attempt to drive away via looking out the driver's window and then running over someone because they couldn't properly see the other side. At least a boot physically prevented someone from moving their vehicle; this doesn't.
Jayden Ramirez
A missing barnacle from your car does not necessitate that you removed it. There's a reason circumstantial evidence is inadmissable in first world courts.
Nathaniel Bell
>home of the niggers and spics
Ian Lopez
I don't get it either. It's depriving someone of the use of their property. If someone's illegally parking or whatever then fucking fine them, but immobilizing their vehicle is bullshit. Like, if I caught someone in the act of booting my truck I'd pull a gun on them, consequences be damned.
Joshua Harris
I can't tell if they do that or do not do that, since I'm only one year here.
Simple. Lube up your windshield before you go driving.
Josiah Williams
>Rights vs. privileges Regardless of what you think on the matter cars are still private property. Hiding behind "hurr its a privilege" is stupid when you consider just how easily you can get your car booted/barnacled - (stay 5 minutes past the meter you get a boot asshole). At the end of the day it's a revenue collection scheme.
And as much as I like the gods work police are doing you cannot deny most cities have turned them into a big revenue collection agency.
I'm not even against towing, but I am against someone racking up 20k in parking fines and a misdemeanor charge because the person they loaned a car to left it at the fucking airport quick park for 3 weeks

Good, see , and prepare your anal lube. Given the purpose of those things you can be rest assured that they will take every precaution for making sure that they will know not only that you removed it, but also when and where. And it wouldn't even be THAT expensive for them to do so - considering how cheap GPS trackers and accelerometers are.

Yeah they must run at a cost like most start up business. Could just leave the car for 24 hours let them come and take it off.

And I'm sure that the people that make those aren't as dumb as you think they are.

Used suction cups for sale cheap. Possibly scale skyscraper with these.
Brayden Wright
Place cellophane wrap on your windshield after parking. If you are barnacled then just remove cellophane. If the barnaclers remove the cellophane you can sue them/have them arrested for destruction of property. It doesn't matter if the cellophane used is only worth a couple of cents, your property have been damaged and they are liable for it.

angle grinder with cutting wheel to get through the plastic then just peel the suction cups off and throw this stupid piece of shit in the trash. Literally anyone who has picked up a hammer can do this

"so what did you guys spend all last years parking fines on?"
"youre gonna love this, we spent it all on giant windshield blinds to fuck with all the people that pay parking fines."
Jason Wood
i hate my neighbor, so could i get one of these and place on her front door and hopefully she wont get out. (french doors)
Andrew Murphy
thats amazing.
Liam Nelson
If there is no proof I did it, then I can't be held liable. It's really that simple. It might be different in Italy m8.
Michael Richardson
>They then have 24 hours in which to return it to a drop-off location.
You can't be forced to do this right?
Justin Cook
nah the lawsuit itself would be worth more than just paying the fine.

Dunno about 'Murrican laws, but regarding clamps or any sort of things attached by a third party to your car for violating parking rules may be removed by the car owner as long as you don't damage the apparatus. The only time you will get into any sort of trouble is when the law enforcement does it to your vehicle, which they don't.
Meaning if you can lock-pick a clamp or take that retarded "barnacle" off easily, you don't have to do jack shit.

I doubt it, unless they're going to pay me to bring it back to them, fuck them.

didn't kramer do this on seinfeld? with a boot?

everybody carries and angle grinder in the trunk. this is the best option so far.

this is a good thread, lots of quality posts

Do it series killer style >Hello sir, yo have 24 hours to return the Barnacleâ„¢ to our drop off location, which is either in the ass end of town or in the middle of fucking traffic

Victorian Sheriffs (Australia) put wheel clamps on cars I applied but according to their online testing I was too dumb for the job
Feels bad man
Caleb Reyes
What about if a nigger steals the barnacle that was attached to your windshield?
Austin Gomez
No shit. But put down the machete and think for a minute Mexico. What good is GPS here? It only tells you it was where you last left it. Doesn't tell you who is messing with it or how it came off. Pretty worthless information.
Whats stopping you from drilling a hole on the other side of the glass? Once the suction is gone it should just fall off?
Joshua Anderson
I stick another barnacle on top of the barnacle.
Jacob Gray
Actually you do have full rights to drive on public roads for transportation. Technically drivers licenses are only needed for using a vehicle on government roads for commercial purposes and and private usage doesn't apply.
Not that this isn't constantly violated 100% around th nation but that doesn't make it any less unconstitutional as the NFA
Gavin Jones
>respond by printing off and mailing this in
Colton Ortiz
If you live somewhere that this could ever happen, it's time to move.
It was pretty dumb on their part to not have anti tampering devices. For example here unmanned speed detectors have cameras pointed at them and the surroundings.
It works the same everywhere else in the civilized world I think, and you wouldn't bring it to court as it would cost you more than just paying the fine.

Why not just apply an external UV strip and remove it alongside the barnacle later
John Campbell
step one kick out windshield
step two drive home
step 3 call my insurance agent and tell him about those damn kid breaking my windshield

It is different in Italy. They don't care about proof. Just look at the Amanda Knox trial for an example.
Benjamin Edwards
ez, install a thin transparent plastic sheet over your windshield
Gavin Kelly
They're putting it on your car for something that is civil, not criminal.
Oh, and I know how to get boots off of cars. I bet I could get one of these things off. I'd just leave it blaring in the parking lot.
Jeremiah Jenkins
You could probably defeat this thing with a water hose, lawn chair and a can of beer.
Caleb Peterson
You wouldn't download a barnacle.
Lucas King
>You don't have CCTV in the US?
Not to the extent it sounds like you do. Gas stations typically have them to catch people trying to steal gas, the inside of stores, sometimes on the outside. That's about it.
Benjamin Lee

I think it's funny how everyone on Cred Forums suddenly becomes a libertarian when they see gay shit like this.
Or at least they show their libertarian side
Asher Lewis
Best post ITT
John Baker
In combination with an accelerometer it tells you exactly when it was tampered with and gives you a solid grasp on how it was removed. It there is CCTV you also get how it was removed and presumably also who removed it.
Sound like the company that owns the Barnacles have a good investment to make then.
Ian Collins
that will make it worse
Ryan Peterson
What car do you have?
I owned a 72 bug the blades where funny. Both 10" long. Tiny little fucks. Surprisingly autozone had one set on the rack.
Nathaniel Harris
Jokes on you >90s car >outside window tint LELELEL

SO le edgy XD fuck da law!
Lincoln Garcia
Ever turned off your car while it's raining and forget to turn the wipers off? Ever jumped back in the car the day after when it's dry, turn the keys and you shit yourself when you hear the unexpected noise of dry rubber sliding across your windscreen?
Just park like that. Nowhere for the cups to suck because the wipers are in the way.
Angel Taylor
>an accelerometer You still have no clue of the direction. So you have to look in a radius of, say, at the speed limit and provided you can act within an hour, of 50km.
You would have to search a radius of 50 fucking km in all directions. Yeah, no one is going to do that.
>CCTV Outside of London, there is CCTV almost nowhere. Especially not on roads and parking lots. Expensive stores and banks, thats about it.
Nicholas Torres
I can let you guys rest at night though lol.
Seriously.
They would never because of the idiot crowd. Yes I'm talking about idiots. Took me a bit to figure a way around this bullshit but it was the idiots.
Idiot. Drives car STILL. Crashes, sues. EtcEtcEtc....wait an idiot may still drive with a boot even though...fucking christ idiots are invincible
David Peterson
1978 Saab 99 and a 1986 Saab 900. Pic related is either a 900 or a 99 windshield.
Lucas Thompson
This, wipers would completely ruin this retarded idea.
Michael Walker
And now you have two holes in your windshield.
Jack Sullivan
They could just fold them up though.
Isaac Lopez
The whole point of the fucking thing is to try to get you to >pay debts.
The worst they could do if you break it is to add more debts to your debts, which you weren't paying anyway, so you wouldn't give a shit.
Ethan Carter
Every time they try to make something idiot proof, somebody invents a better idiot.
Luke Rivera
>In combination with an accelerometer Isnt gong to tell you shit but how hard I chucked the bitch after I got it off the window.. How is an accelerometer going to tell the difference between a drill, an angle grinder, the cellophane wrap, the beer can/water bottle, Dawn dish soap, the string guys proposal, the battery jumper cables, and whatever else Cred Forums has come up with?
Accelerometer... PastaNigger get the fuck out of here
Christopher Lee
>You don't have CCTV in the US?
CCTV works to cover fixed equipment. I doubt they will set up a camera to cover their stinking Barnacle.
Bentley James
Just pull the wipers away from the window.
Angel Stewart
>You still have no clue of the direction Oh please from the moment the accelerometer registers a force greater than a certain value you can make so that the GPS starts continuously broadcasting.
>Outside of London, there is CCTV almost nowhere As I already said, adding CCTV for making so that you have irrefutable proofs that you tampered with the Barnacle would be a really solid investment.
Leo Perez
Should be easy enough to sneak a long needle or shim in there and break the seal

Brody Ortiz
>An alarm will go off.
OK. And? Just drive away from it. Alarm problem solved.
>Drop it off at a location
Like on the street after you break the suction. Problem again solved.
Brayden Wright
what was wrong with the good ol boot?
Jose Gomez
I'd pay my fine and then use an ultra powerful magnet to fuck it up before I drop it off.
Jace Jones
You're telling me foreclosure and forced seizing of property - including the car - and auctioning it off doesn't exist in the US?
Caleb Anderson
why do you care so much about this
Jeremiah Cook
My windscreen has a pretty decent sized crack because I washed my car on a hot day.
This thing is definitely gonna fuck up peoples windscreens.
Samuel Williams
>you can make so that the GPS starts continuously broadcasting. The GPS that I jammed/smashed is suddently broadcasting again?
Magical GPS in these things, I guess.
>adding cctv Would cost more than you could ever make with the fines, and you'd have to convince hundreds of thousands of property owners and businesses to allow you to do that. Never going to happen.
