The streets of Paris have lots of chargers along the sidewalks, seems like cities elsewhere should be able to pull that off as well. Doesn’t even need to be high powered if they’re intended to be parked at overnight.
Do old school parking meters (one per parking space) still exist, and if so, why?
One ticket machine can sell paper parking tickets for 10s or 100s of parking spaces.
Some modern machines even avoid the printed ticket entirely and allocate the payment to the number plate of your vehicle.
Sure downtown there is parking meters, but not in the suburbs where free parking is the norm and most parking spaces go weeks between seeing anyone park in them.
