The next-generation parking clamp that sticks to your windscreen

A New York-based company has revealed an updated type of parking clamp that attaches to car windscreens.

If a parking attendant spots you parking illegally, they can quickly attach the device, which is called The Barnacle. It works by using super-strength suckers to hold the unit in place until owners have called the enforcement company and paid the fine. Only then will they receive a code to unlock it.
