Vehicle clamping and alternative parking management and control systems

Vehicle clamping is a practice that started in the 1950’s in order to enforce traffic and parking regulations usually inside private premises.It often involves the immobilization of a vehicle via a wheel lock that is attached to the tyres of a car in order to make sure that it cannot be driven.
