This is already very common in Amsterdam where citations are written automatically and not even placed on the car. The fine will arrive in your mailbox fully automated within a few weeks.

In other Dutch cities a similar system is used, however the officer still writes a physical ticket and puts it on the car whenever the scanning device shows a hit.

Privacy concerns aside, it seems a little ironic that a tech startup is arguing against efficiency via automation.

Anyway, doesn't Fixed have a vested interest in more parking citations issued? Or does the photographic evidence hurt their ability to win cases on behalf of their clients?
