    You may have experienced the frustration of receiving a parking fine or finding your car towed away(拖走)after leaving it parked for a couple of minutes

    But now a high—tech car sticker could help motorists avoid such a situationby allowing a traffic warden(管理员)to get in touch with themCar owners can buy the sticker and place it inside their car’s windscreen

having set it up with vital informationsuch as their phone numberThe slim design will include

a sensor that will send a text message warning a driver about a coming fine when touched by a

traffic wardenThe message will ask them to move their car immediatelyThe driver could then

type a reply for the warden using their smartphone which will appear on the sticker’s screen

They may choose to write something along the lines of “back in two minutes”in a bid to avoid a

fineFrankfurtbased IT consultantDaniel Kalliontziscame up with the idea and is raising

funds on Indiegogo to put his  sticker into production

    The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic wardens and criticallya

German lawThe law states:“An officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way

for the car owner to remove the vehicle” It could be cheaper for the authorities to contact the

driver than to tow his car

    At the time of writingMr Kalliontzis has raised just over E3000 of his C50000 goal on

IndiegogoIf he manages to raise the moneythe stickers will be shipped in June 2015But it

appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages

because anyone could touch the smart sticker
