It appears as grating in a Fire Zone, (you know, the kind where you're not supposed to stop or park, but the privileged few ignore it) but in reality it has censors that measure the weight of any vehicle stopped on it beyond a certain amount of time. So, if it is a fire engine, fire fighters can de-activate it, but they are the only ones who can. Therefore, if another large truck or vehicle stops longer than a normal traffic pause, spikes come up from below and deflate the tires, law enforcement arrives with the tow truck to issue the fine of up to two hundred, fifty dollars.
Now, those who think they are above the law, will be those who pay in multiple ways. More revenue for the government, so they're happy. There is also a separate model for Loading Zones.
(Now, the only thing left is for me to get my copyright, so we can do this) Personally, I wish they'd put the boot on vehicles who do this, or people who thinks it's okay to park in the handicapped space "for just a minute."
