The other day I went to a concert and parked my car at a parking lot. When the
concert ended, of course there were masses of people trying to exit the
parking lot. There were only 2 cashiers to pay the parking ticket — no
automated machines. So we waited over an hour to pay our ticket. Time that we
ended up paying with our ticket (per hour parking). The cashier didn’t want to
refund us for the waiting time. If the law doesn’t require any standards
requiring waiting times — why would a parking operator ever be incentivized to
have an efficient checkout system? Especially if they are the only parking in
town. Anyways lots of sketchy consumer violations in this space.

While I agree that's a hassle, I don't think this should result in a refund.
It's like ordering dinner, eating it, and then wanting a refund for the meal
because you waited a long time for the meal.

My SUS company, EasyALPR focuses on commercial parking enforcement / vehicle
control.

First, the people who get "in trouble" are often absolutely brazen in their
unfair use of common parking. They're warned multiple times and even when
given a "last chance" notice they'll just keep breaking rules.

At that point you have to TOW them. And let me tell you, a TOW is something
you can't lampoon or get free internet off of. Towing SUCKS and drivers bend
the knee after this happens. I have data to prove it!

Anyhow, another thing about these
