There is little room for parking in Japan. This has not stopped Japanese creativity though. They have pay parking lots like we have but they want to make sure you pay (you know how we do it...pay the smaller amount and hope the parking lot attendant is late or fails to notice). Here's how they make sure you pay-
When your time runs out, the red X appears and the back part of that little parking bump goes up and traps your car. They also have these for bikes and if your time runs out, a little spoke pops between your wheels trapping your bike.
They even have them for scooters, but I could only find an old fashion one.

So, no cheating on your parking fees in Japan!
