Plate scanners could record gps coordinates, use an area, then look at times. Was the plate in the same general area at 1pm? Then not again until 5pm with scans at 3 and 4 not registering the plate? Then they weren't there for more than 2 consecutive hours.
Will it have false negatives if as the scanners going across it misses you? (Say, someone walking and blocking the image) sure. But that's a better outcome than ticketing wrongly.
Seems feasible to me?
Re: parking mid air. Please don't start with strawmen. If the ordinance is 2 hours per day, adding per day is not a ridiculous requirement. The signage should convey the ordinances accurately.

I don't think many people interpret these signs as 2 hours per day. The sign should say per day in that case.
"15 min loading zones" have the same language. Should you only be allowed to load/unload once per vehicle per day?

Which does raise another question, let's say i parked for 2 hours at 10-12. Then came back to another u zone at 4pm. Would that trigger their system?

Not gonna disagree with carvana being sketchy financials right now.
But absolutely do not trust any dealer to inspect the car they're selling you... Always take it to a trusted 3rd party.
(doesn't apply if you're buying CPO I guess, since that comes with warranties I suppose)

Reply to comment by Jumpy-Natural4868 in Seen today in the extended parking lot at the airport by s_kelly210
> I'll park right at the exit gate.
Last time I was at the airport there were two cars basically parked at the two entrance gates. Both were stopped for a long time... thought something was wrong. One in front of my finally backed out (I gave a ton of room because I saw both were occupied with no one leaning out, was curious what was going on so I hung back a bit) and reversed out the entrance a bit. .. okay weird. I figure the gates broken, but like a good human I gotta try myself... gate works fine...
Still have no idea wtf both of them were doing, or how two idiots found each other at the right place and time.

Depending on the age of the house/HVAC it could very well be used as the vent for your furnace. Cracks in the brick/motor joints may be leaking CO into your living space. Worth finding out where your furnace vents to. You could also have animals living in it if it hasn't been used in a while. But outside that, it's not dangerous if you don't light a fire.

Yep, it's bullshit. Just because you paid $5 and a pack of chewing gum for your house in 1950 doesn't mean it's worth that today. Property tax should be on the current value. Otherwise you discourage new people moving in significantly.

Does 50k cases sound now alarming to you when your consider some portion of them don't die but have life altering effects develop?
What about all the cardiovascular damage that doesn't have an immediate impact? Should we ignore that too since you don't die acutely?

I'm right there with you.
I'm not in Jersey anymore (sorry... I have PA plates... I'm so sorry.) - but my area has NO trick or treating at all. Not a single kid has rung my doorbell in 3 fucking years. I fucking hate how we've gotten rid of kids being kids in every aspect - halloween included.
Please. I have a bunch of full-sized bars just in case - save me from my fatness! Come ring my door with awesome costumes!

https://pittsburghpa.gov/dcp/faqs
Literally the city itself states
"Those without a permit may park for only a limited amount of time, which may be no more than a 2-hour period"
If they mean per day they should state per day. But they don't.
Because that's not what is intended.
The ordinance is to prevent long term parking on the street. Not limit total cumulative time you can be doing business in a zone (imagine, for example, a maid sevice doing several houses in the same parking zone)
