Description of the idea: When a traffic officer or roadcrew worker puts a clamp on a car, it should automatically be removed from the vehicle after a set amount of time (10 minutes) unless it's being towed by a roadcrew worker. I've seen this happen a few times recently where a car has been left with a clamp on it, and I've actually done it myself by accident a couple of times when I've had to prioritize another call. This means the owner can't drive it unless a roadcrew worker, traffic officer or staff member removes it.
Why should this be added? (pros):
Why should this be added? (pros):
- Prevents cars from being abandoned with a wheel clamp left on it
- People will no longer need to make reports for the issue above
- Traffic officers can prioritize more important calls instead of being called to remove clamps from vehicles
