| UBC Parking
Those of you who have unpaid tickets will have a higher chance of getting towed now. It appears that UBC Parking recently acquired automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) on some vehicles. The parking patrols simply need to drive around parking lots, and the ALPR will scan all the plates. Those with outstanding tickets will most likely be visited by a tow truck.
Just as a side note, Impark in Richmond acquired a few vehicles with ALPR too.

FFS really? They use the fucking money to buy ALPR vehicles?
How about fixing some of the fucking roads?
Thanks for the heads up

Thanks for the heads up | parking and road work are not even close to the same department... Quote:

Marine drive FYI is not part of UBC....it belongs to the City of Vancouver as do the free parking spots there that fill up by 630am
