Massimo Barnacle explained…#NYC

The NYPD is using “Barnacles” to combat illegal parking. They are commercial-grade suction cups that latch onto the glass with 1,000 pounds of force, making forcible removal next to impossible.

@Rainmaker1973 no one is returning those they are definitely bein dumped on the sidewalk

@Rainmaker1973 Let's see who hacks this first.

@Rainmaker1973 Once I remove it, I'll take it apart and scrap the metal for cash.

@Rainmaker1973 Like I’m dropping this off, I can’t even be bothered to return my Amazon packages

@Rainmaker1973 All you need is a drill. Drill through the top of the casing . Mark out your drill with the depth required by gauging side thickness of casing so you don’t damage windshield.

@Rainmaker1973 That would definitely get destroyed, I'd rather buy a new windshield.

@Rainmaker1973 Loooool, it has a key, so fing easy

@Rainmaker1973 Slip a butter knife or long putty knife under the cups and you're done... I wouldn't bother with the "Drop Box" as that is for the parking attendant.😉 -this has got to be the most stupid design possible🥱
