‘The Barnacle’ is a windshield cover that could replace the parking boot
A Philadelphia native is looking to streamline parking enforcement with a new device that kicks boots to the curb. The “Barnacle,” created by Kevin Dougherty, president of Ideas That Stick, is a device that attaches to a car’s windshield, obstructing a driver’s view and immobilizing the vehicle. It’s a replacement for a parking boot, which the company says is an “unpleasant situation for anyone who has experienced it, but it is also a drain on the administration’s resources.”
