Smart. Very Smart (an occasional series).


Parking in Europe is a bear to begin with; parking in the medieval Altstadt is even worse. I really liked these lockable parking protectors in front of an apartment parking structure. As you can see, a simple padlock fastens this guard in the "open" position so nobody bogards your rare and expensive parking spot; unlocking the lock allows it to fold down so you can drive over and park.

I wish there were a way to make sure your spot would be available (to you) when you need it. Blocking the spot so that no one else can use it when you're not thete sounds so wasteful, but I can't think of a way to guarantee you get your spot or an equivalent upon your return.
